Hows tricks? Was told, and it's a rumor, kind of second hand knowledge thus would have to answer ... tricky?

Thanks for the ping Sword...many computer users are amateurs, not pros like many who dismiss the impact these events may cause to the average user.
And I don’t think you engaged in hyperbole, IMO.

Yesterday when I powered up my Windows 7 IE11 desktop, a Flash player update screen popped up. I let it install (minus the annoying "Do you want this default browser, search engine, yada yada yada" pitch).
Checked just now, and I have version 16.0.0.296, which I assume patched the vulnerability. Will check the Windows 8.1 laptop that my wife uses in a few minutes. Thanks very much for posting your valuable and timely threads!

re:

Where exactly do you check for that?

“f you see clouds moving in the animation below, congratulations, you have successfully installed Flash Player!”
The clouds are moving, but I didn’t do anything. Does that mean the update was automatically installed? It says my version is .296
