And according to Adobe's website:
http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
Newest version is 11.3.300.271

I'm getting this message from multiple machines in my office of about 20 clients. Just counting today 15 different 
systems have spawned this message.

Subject: RE: Adobe Flash outdated

It's probably a TP, and it refers to the installation of Flash that an IE browser is using. Auto-update doesn't 
always seem to work, and if the Flash installation is old enough, it isn't there.

In fact, I'd go so far as to say that Adobe's auto-update is broken. Try downloading and running Secunia PSI on a 
couple of those systems and see what it tells you.


And then there was this :)

From: https://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb12-19.html

"Users of Adobe Flash Player 11.3.300.271 and earlier versions for 
Windows and Macintosh should update to Adobe Flash Player 11.4.402.265."
