Is anyone getting the "please update Flash Player" when they are on Safari. It literally freezes the browser and I am wondering if anyone else has this problem.

The easiest solution would be to simply update Flash. If the prompt truly is causing the problem, updating it will prevent it from causing further issues.

Personally I wouldn't update by clicking the link on the pop-up.

Go to Find version and update from there

Nicky is right.

As with all requests for installation , take the following advice .......
If you did not specifically went looking for it, don't install it.
