After you hit I for install, did you check the active window, insert tab, or 
the progress bar, insert page down? It may have been too fast even if you had, 
but that might have reassured you. I can't remember if I did that, but it would 
have been my S.O.P.

  It took a week for this Adobe Flash update message to reappear, but it just 
did. Thanks to Roy and the others who helped. Still, it wasn't smooth sailing.

  First, insert-b gave me no new information. I still had before me an 
unlabelled button and the other saying simply, "Q."

  Following lister advice, I clicked on the non-q of the two buttons and was 
presented with a screen of three buttons. This time one was unlabelled, one 
said "Q" again, and the third said "I." If "Q" stood for "quit," I figured "I" 
must stand for "install." I clicked on it, after which a third screen appeared 
with the "I" button again. And again I pressed spacebar on it. The screen went 
away, and I'm left with no idea whether the installation completed.

  I thought the people at Adobe got the whole accessibility message.

  well q is "quit" and the unlabeled one is the one you need to activate the 
install. Roy

  Hi. I keep receiving a message on rebooting my computer that Adobe wants to 
install a new version of its flash player. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear 
consistently or else I would have had someone sighted look at the screen.

  the first appearance shows a clear "Install" button, which I click on. 
However, the next screen shows two buttons, one with no label and the other 
with the unhelpful label of "Q."

  Can someone tell me what these two buttons represent?
