Stop the Adobe Flash Player from checking for updates

An IT administrator is able to configure the Adobe Flash Player to prevent it from checking for updates on the internet. This is achieved using the mms.cfg file located in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash (NOTE: you will need to manually create the file using Notepad).

Instructions on the configuration options can be found here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/167/16701594.html

Another link that may come in handy is the Flash Player Settings Manager found here:
