I have, within the last few days, been experiencing a nuisance pop-up window that shows the following text....
Flash Player WARNING!
Your FlashPlayer Have Serious Secure Bugs!
Please Update NOW!
The webpage name shown at the address bar ishttp://mplayer5888.info/flashplayer/install/
When using Mozilla Firefox, the window opens randomly in the same window I am currently using and puts a smaller window in front of it with the poorly written text in it. This means that whatever I was doing is terminated and I have to either back out, or close the browser. When using Google Chrome, it seems to open a new tab, again randomly, and the same windows and text are evident.
I am not sure if I have described this adequately but I hope that it can be understood.
I have not used Internet Explorer (I have version 8) so have not noticed this same thing happening.
Having seen this pop-up, and been concerned about it, I visited the official Adobe website and installed Flash Player 11 latest version from there but the same pop-up still randomly occurs. Furthermore, a virus scan and a malware scan is not showing any problems with my computer.
Any ideas? Is this a real concern, or just a phishing attempt?
