Please update your Flash, it is not up to date The current flash now is 10,3,181,26

Use this link, to check, and use the link on the page to update http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

From there you probably won't get tricky messages to install crapware along with the wanted application.

after retesting then post the url so to others may try testing themselves. After loading the url what does one do before the error happens.
