It seems as if Flash Player wants me to update every time I turn around. 
  I have to close Safari to do it.  Sometimes that's okay.  I may have 
had some pages open several days, but Safari is set to reopen them when 
launched.

Sometimes the installer reopens Safari to make a sales pitch.  In that 
case, Safari won't reopen the pages I had open.  If I didn't bookmark 
them, I'll have to find them in History.  If I've opened and closed a 
lot of pages since I first opened the ones I want, it could be a long 
search.

It's bad behavior by Adobe to open Safari to their page when I click 
Finish.  It seems like a big oversight by Apple that this can cause me 
to lose pages that were supposed to reopen.

Uninstall it and it never asks to be updated again.

Just about everything Adobe does is "bad behavior" which is why I do not
install Flash on my computers. Ont eh *very* rare occasions I need it, I
launch Google Chrome.
