Alternative Flash Player Auto-Updater let's you download and install the Flash Player without having to download Adobe's download manager - it downloads the latest version and asks you whether it should be installed or not. You can choose to let it run at the start of Windows, this way you can be sure that your system will never run an outdated and extremely dangerous version of Flash Player.

    This works well, and is a much easier way to install Flash on both IE and Firefox (and others). There is one error message about permissions on start up, but just click past that and it works.

    If you don't want the adware, then don't install it.

    I really don't understand the use of this when Flash on and off tell You when there is an update.

    Useless software. Just download the manual installers directly from Adobe:

    This program bundles OpenCandy in a rather underhand way. It is mentioned in the licence agreement, BUT there is no offer to install other software that OC usually does. Also, on first run after install, Opencandy runs again. ESET AV blocks these connections.

    Also, the program keeps on asking to load on Windows startup every time it is loaded.

    TBH, it is easier to install the Adobe downloader, d/l flash and then delete the 'loader.

    This crap gives programming a bad name.
