724743 2008-12-01 18:03:00 I have just acquired a new laptop.
Every few minutes I get a pop up saying 'This site wants to install Adobe Flash Player Installer'
Is this something I need and should download or is it spam and there is some way of stopping it appearing?

724744 2008-12-01 18:18:00 click on it, and then choose install this active x control.

Adobe flash player is usually used in animations, or online applications like youtube. It's best to install it to ensure compatibility across the web.

724745 2008-12-01 18:19:00 No it is not spam. Alot of sites use it and if you have not got it the site won't work, so yes I would install it. I would say most on this forum have it installed.
