I received an Adobe Update, on my PC, and it contained a Trojan Virus when I down loaded it!! Malwarebytes caught it..:encouragement:
 

Ken, whenever I restart my pc I get a popup to update Adobe. Always wondered if it was for real or not. I've always declined so far.

Is that the way it happens, or did you go on site to update?
 
Adobe is big and fat and crawling with all kinds of spyware. they constantly update flashplayer. I dumped it and now use foxit reader.
 
I NEVER do the Adobe Update that comes up on our computer. A "little birdie" in my head says "no, don't do it" and I always follow what that "little birdie" tells me!
 
the update console is on my PC when I turn it on. its always flashplayer and i have no problems. so far

I haven't had problems so far, but what I did when I got tired of seeing that is I googled it. It said that it would come up if one of my plugins was outdated. So I went into Firefox and shockwave needed an updated so I just did that. I haven't seen the adobe popup lately but I sure get tired of it. I know I've read on how to rid my puter of it but I'm too lazy to tackle it right now, LOL!
