> In today's scheduled release, we've updated Flash Player and AIR with important bug fixes and security updates.
> 
> Current Flash Player users that have enrolled in the "Allow Adobe to install updates (recommended)" update mechanism will be automatically updated over the next 24 hours.  No additional work is required on your part.  
> 
> Users that have selected "Notify me to install updates" will receive an update notification dialog within 7 days from today.  Please note that Windows users will need to restart their system or log out and in to activate the update notification dialog.
