PC, Chrome Browser, Adobe flash plugin enabled yet I still get shockwave crashes
There is a fake adoble flash product that tries to self install, and I think it may be causing problems. Is there something I can do to prevent this malware attack, or is there a better browser that won't crash?
+56Hello and Welcome to the Webroot Community!
Yes there are many Malware disguised as a Adobe Flash Player update. Also you should only get updates for any product from the vendor directly as for Adobe Flash see here: https://community.webroot.com/t5/Security-Industry-News/Adobe-Flash-Zero-Day-Under-Attack/m-p/253319#M26283 if you feel you need a security check please Submit a Support Ticket and they will help you sort this out.

+56Also note that when there is a new Chrome Browser Update they include Flash Player so there is no need to update Chrome's Flash Player. https://community.webroot.com/t5/Security-Industry-News/Google-Chrome-51-0-2704-84-Stable/td-p/256793 now for Chrome crashing it could be many things just a quick search shows issues: https://www.google.com/search?q=Chrome+Browser,+Adobe+flash+plugin+enabled+yet+I+still+get+shockwave+crashes&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&gws_rd=cr&ei=b_1eV5nuNYzBjwSOsJT4CA but I personally don't see any issues with Chrome.
