Procedure on how to Automate Flash Updates

I realized that because Flash is used so universally,  it can be a target for hackers. I appreciate it that Adobe provides regular updates to  safeguard my computer from attacks. Yet the frequency of update messages makes it pretty annoying to got through the same procedure and how it steals focus to do it! When the last update installed it was right in the middle of a presentation!!! I prefer Firefox Portable and yes, I know some browsers download to a separate update window and Firefox, both Desktop and Portable/Key versions are not an exception.

However until I have completed the  Flash update installation, because I can't find a way to automate it, given I answer the same questions in the same "Yes" manner, every time, I find myself wishing for and always on the lookout for a Flash substitute that I can automate!

Unless i've missed a setting, I see no way to stop this nagging, so can anyone help with this?

Geez, can't turn off italics in this posting area... seperate issue, but, like focus-stealing update nagging, I can't seem to turn it off!
