Flash Player Pro

Air Software

Warning, this is not the legitimate setup program for Flash Player Pro. The setup is bootstrapped by the Air Installer 'download manager' (a pay-per-install monetization download manager) that bundles unwanted software (adware, toolbars, extensions) during setup while deciving the user into thinking they are downloading the stadard installation setup from Flash Player Pro. The application flashplayerpro.exe by Air Software has been detected as adware by 19 anti-malware scanners. The program is a setup application that uses the AirInstaller Download Manager installer. With this installer, users are expecting to download the free Adobe Flash Player but before that occurs they may be presented with additional offers, mostly potentially unwanted software or adware.
