Hello, my name is Michael. Today, when you upgrade Adobe Flash player to version 23, antivirus software Dr. Web Security Space pro version 11 issued a message about the detection in the installation file virus DLOADER. TROJAN"

Hi,

What is the URL to the site you downloaded the update from?

When was the last time you updated the virus definitions on Dr Web Security Space Pro?

We routinely run virus scans on the installers and do so before posting them.  I checked flashplayer23pp_ha_install.exe on virustotal.com and none of the anti-virus software, including DrWeb, show the file as being malicious.  You can test it by going to www.virustotal.com and uploading the file.

In the mean time, I will forward this post to the online installer team.

I now re-downloaded this file from Adobe, and then forcibly unpacked it. In the result, the antivirus program Doctor Web issued a message: Dr.Web Инструменты Менеджер карантина (66 kb) закачан 15 сентября 2016 г. Joxi

Thank you for the screenshots.  I did forward your post to the online installer folks.

In the interim, please use the offline installer posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Windows 7 and earlier page in the 'Still having problems' section.
