how can i tell if adobe flash update is real

Today I have received several notices online to update my Adobe Flash player. Last year I did it and had to buy the Malware program to remove it. Is there some way to determine if it is legitimate?

If you get a popup, simply quit it— and instead go to >System Preference>Flash


Here you can verify the truth of the matter through the Flash preferences Check Now tool



Always download direct from the developers website.
