Right.

My point though is that a hacker apparently used the real version of the latest flash to take over my computer and nothing was detected by Comodo full version, malwarebytes, spybot, Norton, etc. The pop up is not the problem. Flash is the problem.

As of about 2 minutes ago the pop up has improved a bit more and now doesn't show the promo link but simply directs you to flash.

I have no adobe products whatsoever on this computer right now.

If I had been on the internet on a page with flash and got a pop up to update the flash, and was then directed to the real adobe site, I would get bitten.
