Adobe isn’t rushing out to get people to update so I’d suggest holding off on the world-is-ending hype. This is all pretty stupid. As another writer says, this only leads to multiple updates, slipped in 3rd party installs, etc.

Adobe always runs under the radar with the updates. . . and leaves people hanging in the wind. There are exploits in the wild. Many people have turned off their auto-updates. I think it is better that users be aware there is a problem with their FLASH player then ignorantly continue as they are. That's why I put "DELETE" in the announcement. They can do as they choose. It's posted. Freepers can do as they choose. . . as can you. In my opinion, it is not HYPE.

How would I go about deleting it? I’m not that computer tech savvy.

Thanks for the ping Sword...many computer users are amateurs, not pros like many who dismiss the impact these events may cause to the average user.

And I don’t think you engaged in hyperbole, IMO.
