It's a way to read the contents of the active Web site.  It is not malware, but your second question is not simple.  There are many who struggling if allowing flash content exposes you to risks (it's active content... it's difficult, but possible to inject commands that can divert the PC.)  There is a big debate about this... so do not automatically go one way or another. If you stay on well-known (safe) sites and keep your PC up-to-date, your risk is probably very low.
