Fixlet Description: Adobe has released a new version of the Flash Player Plugin (18.0.0.375) for Netscape-based browsers. Use the action below to update Flash Player to the latest version. 

Important Note: If the Flash Player is running, a pop-up message may be displayed prompting the user to reboot their computer once the update is complete. The action will not complete until the prompt is closed. To prevent this behavior, you may want to deploy this action with the user constraint "Run only when no user is present" or display a message box before action execution instructing the user to shut down all web browsers before applying this update.

Important Note: For the update to take effect immediately, choose the "Close Firefox and upgrade the Flash Player." action. The action will close any running instance of Firefox on the client machines. Schedule the update to occur at a time when a service interruption is acceptable.
