With this release over 700 million people now have access to the company’s most updated browser.
This new browser will be available as an optional immediate update.
Users with the release preview installed will have got it as an “important” update.

On Windows 7, Flash will not be embedded. Instead, it will use the same ActiveX plug-in as Internet Explorer 9 did. Updates will have to be installed using Adobe’s updater, not Microsoft’s.
