[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1839935, member: 83420"] Don't click on any link and don't follow through on this. Genuine updates to Flash are always notified via System Preferences in the bottom pane. You wisely checked this and confirmed everything was all right. If you know the "familiar" sites where this message appears, you have the choice of completely ignoring the pop-ups or you could delete all cookies and website data for those sites. This would mean logging in to them afresh with username/password; but it might stop these irritating messages. Do you use any anti Ads or anti-tracking apps or extensions, out of interest?
