@jarednichols yeah, but haven't we all at some point :P

I hate to be part of the fuel that started the flash fire. I understand the viewpoints and opinions that were thrown out, but Safari is going to stick around for a bit.

I've been using the script above for months now, however it appears the URL: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/mac/install_flash_player_24_osx_pkg.dmg
No longer works :(

It appears the fine folks at Adobe are changing some of there distribution urls based on the below reddit link. It stands to reason if the SCUP url is updated the mac url most likely has changed also

In case it hasn't been posted yet, the script posted by @rtrouton on GitHub works perfectly to update Flash. It works flawlessly as of today.
