Please install Flash Player HD to continue

Question

When I start my computer I frequently get a screen showing "Please install Flash Player HD to continue"Is this legitimate or malware?

There is no "Flash Player HD" from Adobe. Flash Player will play HD video if the video embedded is HD.

THOSE are the "legitimate" installers.

In Windows, go to: Control Panel>System and Security>Flash Player (32bit)>Advanced to check your version.

In Mac OS X, go to: System Preferences>Flash Player>Advanced.

The current version is 11.9.900.152

If yours is lower than that, use the appropriate link(s) above to update.

If you STILL see the update notices, you have malware producing them, but such malware wouldn't work on a Mac.
