CNET Editors' review
Adobe's latest version of the Flash Player browser plug-in is just as trouble-free as previous versions, existing unobtrusively in your system until Web-based animations, games, or ubiquitous Flash ads require its services.
The latest version downloads and installs quickly, and will probably always require a browser restart. Our tests turned up nothing to make us scratch our heads, and upgrading from version 9 to the current one has fixed for many people a bug that caused embedded video to freeze.
You need a Flash Player to experience the Web at its fullest, so users at any level of expertise should have no qualms about installing or upgrading to Flash 10.
Adobe Flash Player - Watch videos online - Download Video Previews:Publisher's Description

This player is very small, takes only a short time to download, and is a great starting point for experiencing multimedia on the Web.

Flash Player 7 opens up new possibilities with breakthrough performance gains, high-quality video, and Web services connectivity. It also supports ActionScript 2.0, the new scripting language introduced with Flash MX 2004.

"NOTHING TO SAY YOU NEED THIS"
Version: Flash Player (Internet Explorer) 7.0.19
Pros
There is not a lot of things that you need on your computer.
If you don’t have this its like not having a browser or a media player.
Loads of internet sites rely on flash player as it provided easy access to animations and plus loads more.
If you don’t have this you will be very upset when you will not be able to open something you desperately need.
If you are a gave person it is radical for you for playing online games.
Even if your not you need this.
Download it!
Good luck
Cons
Takes a while to install it, but it is worth it

"ENJOY EYEPOPING ADS? LIKE FLASHY POPUPS?"
Version: Flash Player (Internet Explorer) 7.0.19
Pros
Garish, intrusive, attention getting advertising makes money
Cons
Flash is now the ubiquitous media for advertisers.
What they don't tell you is that info by advertisers is cached in flash.
Flash is now more of a burden than an asset, too bad.
If adware is for you, flash is for you.
Knock your self out with pretty ads.

"You need this to get the most out of the internet."
Version: Flash Player (Internet Explorer) 7.0.19
Pros
With the amount of users upgrading to broadband increasing dramatically, alongside the speeds of internet access also, the use of Macromedia Flash is becoming a major part in graphics design. It allows for high user interactivity and therefore many new websites are opting to use it to their advantage. This flash player allows you to view the content of websites that have Macromedia Flash elements, whether it be just a simple game or the whole site's design and navigation.
Cons
There are none, you have nothing to lose from downloading this. All it does is give you greater access to the interent as many websites are deciding to incorporate Flash into their design and therefore you will need this player to be able to view it.
