The updater is much faster than the version 9. I remember it used to take a long long time waiting for the installer to complete.

This one took just a minute or two.

Macromedia Flash 8 Usage TipSlow installer from hell - Version: 9.0.3, 9/30/2008 11:01PM PST

I'm seeing the same thing the udders have mentioned. A phenomenally slow updater. Actually, one of the slowest I've ever seen... ever. What on Earth did Adobe do with this thing?

Macromedia Flash 8 Troubleshooting ReportCan't seem to update 9.0.0.494 to 9.0.2 - Version: 9.0.2, 3/5/2008 03:08PM PST

Downloaded update, and it fails to run on my version of Flash. I also used the Adobe Updater to search for the latest updates. A while back it downloaded this update, and supposedly updated Flash (as well as other CS3 products), and still, my app reads as version 9.0.0.494.

So, either the update didn't actually work, or there is a bug in the update where the application does get updated, but they don't change the version information.

Thoughts?
