Seems to be some confusion here.

I didn't have Flash installed because I don't use it anymore. I deleted it a long time ago along with any traces of it, e.g. prefs. I don't want Flash Player and I don't want to download it. I see no point in that.

Nothing should be downloading itself to my computer without my permission or any action from me. I've never been an "automatic update" guy.

One other dubious add-on, which I had enabled, is Clip Converter. Google revealed some people complaining that it downloaded malware.

Edit: Correction. I never deleted every trace of Flash. EasyFind tells me there are all kinds of Flash and Adobe files on my computer, most of which I know nothing about and therefore leave alone.

Maybe I will download a version of Flash and then uninstall it.
