Update Adobe Flash player (avoid ransomware)

The wonderful (dead) walking security flaw that is Adobe Flash Player is currently being used as an attack vector for ransomware on all platforms (not just Windows this time, but Mac, Linux and Chrome OS). So make sure you are running at least version 21.0.0.213.

You can check your current version on this page:

Most people should have auto-updates on, and should already have it. But check just in case!
