Hello all,

Just informed by windows 10 system that Flash got update.  I noticed that the installation included a software called gameplayer.exe and Avast told me it's virus when loading up together with Flash player.  Please note.  Thanks.

Me too. Apparently a Japanese game app (with a name starting with 2144) downloaded with the Flash update on Windows 10. I was able to de-install the app, but it required trial-and-error guessing at what the buttons (in Japanese) meant. I am very concerned this was/is a virus that may have repercussions on my computer.

Here's a screen shot:

The GameCenter software offer should not have been displayed for anyone outside of China.  We investigated the issue and it was resolved several hours ago.

What is your geo-location and when did this happen?
