A new and annoying pop-up on VideoKarma

[earlyfilm]

Everytime when I sign on to VideoKarma, this message pops up: "This website wants to run the following add-on: 'Adobe Flash Player' from 'Adobe Systems Incorporated'. If you trust the website and the add-on and want to allow it to run, click here..."

OK, I already have the latest version of Adobe Flash that is available for 32 bit Microsoft Windows XP Professional installed, which is Adobe Flash Player 11 ActiveX (11.6.602.180)

Adobe confirms that Flash is working properly.

This computer has the latest updates from Microsoft, along with the IE 8 browser.

VideoKarmas seems to still be working OK without the mysterious "add-on" but all of a sudden over half of the websites that I visit have stopped working and keep telling me that I need Flash. (Some say at least version 10 although I have 11 installed and working.)

Is this an evil plan to for force everyone to install google chrome?

If one forgets to uncheck it, Adobe will install google chrome automatically.
