Hi, this may be a trivial question but how is updating supposed to work for Adobe flash player on the mac?
I ask because every once in a while I get a big ol' popup saying that I need to update flash, it takes me to a url like "get3.adobe.com/flash".
Now in preferences I've explicitly stated that I'll allow adobe to install updates without notifying me. When I still get these pop-ups asking me to download a dmg and install the whole thing all over again I'm almost starting to think that it's a trojan.
It can't possibly work this way can it? I mean even desktop apps get updated in the background and only after it's done are you notified. Flash in chrome updates behind the scenes too as far as I understand.
Am I really supposed to download a file from adobes website, close safari, mount the file and install flash myself every time there is a fix (like this new 15.0.0.189). It must be something wrong with my machine right?
