Comments on: Restart or Not Restart? http://technobabbl.es/2007/06/restart-or-not-restart/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=rss I try to sound like I know what I'm talking about. Don't be fooled.

I've updated the post to reflect this.

The Flash Player can’t update if it is in use, so that message is likely because you had something running that had the player loaded in memory and it couldn’t register the file. There are applications that link to, or use, the system installed player. Could be an IM client, open browser with Flash running, or something like that.

But, I’ll take a look to see if the wording can be improved. We try to keep it simple as well as make all efforts to ensure users don’t get a “restart computer” message.
