Flash-update installs Vosteran

This morning I received the message, my Flash Player is too old and should be updated. I was wondering, because I use Windows 8.1. and the Flash is located and automatically updated. But when I did the update, with the fact that he brought the Vosteran program which hacked all my browsers. I got rid of it with a malicious software program, but the thing came again and when I read the license agreement with a lot of attention, he said, it will bring Vosteran and it luckily possible to uncheck that. So I refused to do this update, but want to know if there are false reports updated on the way.

Flash Player is installed on the computers of 1.2 billion.  It is a popular choice for the attackers when they want to trick someone into downloading counterfeit software.

Always download the software directly from the supplier.  For Flash Player, if you see a line of upgrade, and then either use the Refresh button on Control Panel > Flash Player > advanced, or select http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer to make sure that the files you download are legitimate.

  • OSX: Flash Player installer appears easily 10 x per day

    Dear Adobe team,

    On my Macbook Pro with OSX 10.11.6 the app to install flash player launches easily 10 times a day, without asking me for it.

    What is happening is that I do my job and at random, get a pop-up saying that Flash player is up-to-date on my system.

    10 times. a. day.

    Unfocuses some app I work too much so I often in bulk text because of its input.

    I don't know what make the top to open it, I have the following programs open all day: Firefox 48.0.1, Apple Mail, Mailplane 3, Slack, Apple Notes.

    I can't spend a day with these applications closed for troubleshooting, it's my work machine.

    Do you have any suggestions what to do? How do I update the Flash Player installer or why is this application even on my system?

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Thanks for the info.

    The reason that the pop - up that happens is that the plugin PPAPI (used by Opera and browser based on Chromium, except Chrome) is an older version of Flash Player.  Update checker runs and tries to check for an update, but the check fails because of an error "unable to connect to the server.  Because he cannot connect to the server, it then returns the message you see.  We have not seen the error returned in your log file and need to continue the investigation.

    Use a proxy server?

    Your system has restrictions on what processes can access the internet?

    If you use the PPAPI plugin, launch the Chrome browser that uses it and go to https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer to download and install the latest version of the PPAPI plugin.

    If you have / use a browser based on Chromium, I recommend you to uninstall.  Unfortunately, the Mac uninstaller program currently does not support remove them that type a (for example, PPAPI only or NPAPI only) Player.  It allows you to uninstall all Flash Player plugins present on the system and you will then need to re - install the NPAPI (used by Firefox) plugin.  To uninstall using the standalone uninstall program or the Adobe Flash Player installed by located in/Applications/Utilities.  After that the player is uninstalled, start Firefox and go to https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer to download and install the NPAPI plugin.

  • Need to force the Flash Player installer to work even if it is out of date.

    There are a lot of PC in our network of the firm has to Flash Player version 11.1, on which is installed. We tried to get version 18 for all these PC, when Adobe released another update and all of a sudden that we used to push the update installation program will no longer work. We must be able to choose a single installer and work with it until all users in our system are up-to-date - regardless of whether or not Adobe releases yet another player update in the meantime. Is it possible to force the installer to work even if it is not the ABSOLUTE latest version? Otherwise, our users will not be just a version behind - they will continue to keep DOZENS of versions behind. I know that Adobe wants to force us to use the latest version of player safety, but in such a case the result is actually less of security.

    Any suggestions? Thanks for listening.

    -Brandon

    Hi brandonLancaster,

    Rate of normal release of the flash player is both - per month, the second Tuesday of the month.  Out-of-band releases occur when there are challenges of high-risk security bug, which we had recently.  What seems to have happened, is that client machines have been updated to the latest version, while you try to put a version prior to these systems. We can check this by looking at the FlashInstall.log file on a client computer that returned this error.  The FlashInstall.log file is located in the following location:

    • 32-bit: C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
    • 64-bit: C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash AND C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash

    You can send the contents of the file in your response, or download it by following the instructions that the specified item was not found. and after the URL in the files downloaded in your response.

    To avoid this scenario does not happen in the future, you disable the updates on the computers of your customers and then only deploy updates through your system of the EDSM.  To do this, you will need to deploy a custom file mms.cg with updates disabled for client systems.  The Flash Player Admin Guide examines various deployment strategies in Chapter 3.  Chapter 4 discusses managers features related to security, privacy, the use of disk space and so on, and the AutoUdpates section is on page 31.

    In addition, you can sign up to receive the Security Bulletin and the opinion here notice and Security Bulletins.  When a bulletin/notice is posted you would receive an email notification and can then go download the latest version, when it is validated and remove what to your client computers.

  • Flash player installation fails on Yosemite/Mavericks

    I could not update or install flash player for some time now.  It started on the Mavericks several months ago, when an update has failed, but I am now on Yosemite and the problem persists.  I tried many, many things on the forums apple and adobe for trying to get flash to install or update including starting in safe mode, remove the drive completely, flash Offline Installer and many others. I even spend about one hour with Apple in a chat session and another hour to a Genius Bar appointment - two technicians have been very knowledgeable but ultimately could not help.  I became convinced that something weird was messed up in my OSX installation so tonight, I reinstalled the operating system tries to solve this problem, but even that has not set.  The symptom is always the same - download fine, but little time in the installation phase fails.  The more useful info that I could get is running Setup directly via Terminal.

    Hi djvicker,

    There are a few posts here with the same "Installer: certificate used to sign the package is not approved." Use - allowUntrusted to override. "question.  Please see the following threads:

    Installer: certificate used to sign the package is not approved. AllowUntrusted - allows to substitute.

    Re: Unable to install Flash Player on Mac

    Untrusted certificate...  Flash will not install OS X 10.10?

    The installer is signed correctly, Setup online smaily refers both the Offline Installer. Setup online simply download and install Setup offline silently in the background, while the Offline Installer is the full installation package.

  • How to spot a fake Flash Updater?

    A few days ago, I have updated Flash Player on all my computers.

    Today at bowsing on a webserver which apparently was not using any Flash content

    a warning window comes on top of my work:Screen Shot 2014-07-10 at 14.17.15.png

    There is no mention of what version talks about this update.

    At the same time the range of low grade in the IMMA make me think about typical adware

    who try to take us to the navigation on the commercial web servers.

    I tend to think it's a more wrong Flash Updater.

    How can I determine if this Setup is real or fake?

    How can I quickly see the version of that this installer is speaking?

    How can I identify what source is this bleeding window?

    An update of Flash Player version was released two days ago: 14.0.0.145.

    However, I don't know how to identify false update notifications.

    Best way to avoid false updates is to manually download the update from the Adobe or Macromedia site: g http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/support/install_flash_player_osx.dm - this link always contains the latest available Installer.

  • Why does Adobe think we want Chrome addons and McAfee adds a simple FLASH update?

    It is not good to present an update with addons like Chrome and McAfee to install negative directly run from the site.  Download the file after unchecking the box that I don't want mcafee mess up my computer you can install the update without the garbage.  I want either chrome...  Of course, I used it in the past but I don't want to now.  It's almost impossible to use the web these days without flash enabled unless you are a people and don't understand anyway.   Try to graft these unwanted software on top a Flash update isn't cool!  Its bad enough 3rd party downloads come with things like that but whats next a few adware?    Please review your strategies update than getting installed stuff is lame that he refuses the favors at all.

    It's friendly Pat that you create installers without it.  The point is that the common unknowing user can be warned of needing an update for flash can create problems for them then that is unaware of the McAfee and Chrome addons, who is not aware of your own installation programs.

    This is not a complaint is a justified grievance.  Updates for most of the software don't come with the need to search around for a clean install.

    If you like to keep McAfee to use it.  Perhaps you have never had the experience of using an Acer One netbook provided with McAfee preinstalled on it and the 'fun' it creates.

  • Flash Player Installation troubleshooting Instructions are WRONG.

    They claim that the contents of the package includes a .pkg file in the folder resources.  He isn't here.  The standard update did not work on my Macbook Pro 17 "running the Mavericks since 2 or 3 years.  I need this .pkg file to run on the Apple Installer.  I followed the instructions and uninstalled Flash Player.  I have now no possible access to Flash content.  I need this .pkg file.  Does anyone know how to get there?  Anyone at Adobe will update the false information about the Troubleshooting Guide?  The Adobe policy do not provide phone support is cruel!

    @tolsenmd

    In fact, we do an installer .pkg for use with deployment of Apple utilities.  Grabbing the .pkg to our standard .app installation is not a good idea, because it has not been designed for this scenario and you will encounter problems (e.g. a preferences panel that falls down.)  Our formal .pkg install takes care of all this and is officially supported.

    The pkg is provided through our distribution agreement.  I recently wrote a blog post detailing this and more, which might be of interest.

  • YouTube muted after Flash update

    Following a recent Flash update, I hear no sound on YouTube videos.
    I can still hear sound on the video test of FF, here page:
    https://addons.Mozilla.org/firefox/addon/navigational-sounds

    So I went to this help page:
    https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/KB/no%20sound%20in%20firefox?s=sound+YouTube & r = 0 & m = & did = s

    On this page, he refers to a feature in Windows called "Volume Mixer". The screenshot shows three applications to the Volume mixer function, they are called "Sound system", "Mozilla Firefox" and "Container Plugin for Firefox".

    I only have one called 'System Sounds '. The other two are missing. Why is it so and how do I restore them?
    On the Microsoft forum, they tell me that the applications are added here automatically.

    Another forum suggested that the plugin was blocked by my firewall. This isn't so.
    And yet another forum suggested that I disable using accident coverage a topic: config parameter: there's no way I'm going to do this.

    Alice:
    I have now uninstalled Flash, which was a beta version because the latest 'stable' done FF crash when viewing Google Docs.
    I then installed the latest recommended Flash in the usual way, and this, combined with the upgrade to version 11 FF seems to have solved both problems.
    Thanks for your help.
