Is this link a legitimate installer?

Hello,

I had a pop up from Firefox saying I needed to update flash.

I followed the link and downloaded but before installing I stopped as I was unsure if the link was legitimate because it began with 'get3.'

Please can you let me know if this was a legitimate link or if there's a possible risk from this?  I think the link was either:

Adobe - Adobe Flash Player Download

Adobe Flash Player Install for all versions

Adobe Flash Player Install for all versions

Many thanks for your help in advance

John

Yeah, these are fine -- adobe.com is the critical part.  You can also look at the details for the SSL certificate (usually clicking on the lock in the browser address bar will give you those details), and confirm that it's issued to Adobe Systems Incorporated. 

When in doubt, just go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer and we'll redirect you to the appropriate download.
