It seems that every site that uses Flash is now nagging me to update it. I hate having Flash as it is and only suffer it under pressure to make the likes of Aunty's iPlayer work. Now the slutware is nagging me to update and I want to take the Luddite path and tell it to GDIAF, but I know in my black and cynical heart that I must click that 'update now' button sooner rather than later.

Meh! Leave it until you get back from Hungary - there'll be another update by then anyway!

O, you'll probably be passing very close to me then. (depending on your route)

Not as close as I thought it would be but still pretty close (I live in Blankenberge).
Small remark, I don't know what time you'll be passing it but avoid the E40 after Gent, they are working there and there is pretty much a traffic jam between Drongen and Aalst at and around the peak hours. Also if possible avoid Brussels (always traffic jams there)
Seeing you come from Calais, you might want to take a route closer to this: linky[^]
You'll avoid most if not all the road works.
You can find the road works in Belgium on this site: http://wegenenverkeer.be/werken/regio[^]
it is in dutch tho but you can see the map (red rectangles are current works, blue are within the next 3 weeks)

I can't really avoid Brussels, we stay there with a friend. Actually we're staying for the last time as she's moving to Latvia next week so we'll have to take a motel on the way back.

Well still try to avoid the Gent area then (at least you can avoid some of the traffic jams there).
I'd offer to let you stay with me but well I don't think my apartment is big enough for an entire extra family (only have one spare room  )

This is probably going to be hard to believe, but the reason browsers now nag you to update flash is because (are you sitting down?)...there is a bug in Flash that can be used by hackers to compromise your machine
No...wait....that's actually news to no-one as 99% of all net exploits use bugs in Flash because Flash is probably the worst thing to happen to the internet since the marquee tag, it's no wonder Steve Jobs banned it from his devices.

Ok now I know I need some more sleep, cause that actually made sense to me

Ah, can you give me a list of all the vulnerabilities that this new update will "fix"?
It seems more like a fixed list of dates; Flash will say it needs to update even without checking if there actually IS one. To me, it looks more like a way to try to push all the options of the installer.
If one is serious about security, then one bans Flash from the machine completely.

They've been busy recently due to the zero-day bugs discovered after the "Hacking Team" hack:

Good plan; same goes for the Java plugin.

Oh, come on now.
That is completely unfair to the marquee tag.

I think you should dump Flash. I used to keep it only for Aunty but, as far as I know, Aunty has now seen sense and eliminated Flash from all current content.
Someone please correct me if I am wrong about that, but I haven't run into any problem as a result of my Flashlessness for quite a long time.
[edit]
OK, I've realised you need Flash to watch iPlayer in a web browser on a PC, but there are better ways!

Did you try using Gin?

{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

The crappy bloatware has some evil holes in it. So you should update or deinstall it. We german are calling such decisions as "alternative-less" - so do the updates... 
Press F1 for help or google it.
