Ugh.
Adobe updater, “I, update bot, decided you reeeeeally want me to automatically install, AAAAALLL THE TIME! So I’ll do it while you are in the middle of something, fail, then hang your browser! Then your attempt to correct the botched install will fail due to my install program putting the ‘install complete’ hooks in the registry prior to actually being complete!”
Had fun last time it did that to me with Firefox.
I have flash set to beg me to update, that way I can watch it like a hawk.
However, it tries to default to “update automatically, and always at the wrong time” after every update.
NEVER let it update itself.
NEVER.
Uninstall it first.
