I got that too. It opened in another window, so all I did was close the
window and I saw the dialog for saving the file. The flash update was just
an ad. I ignore them anymore because I know my flash player is up-to-date.
Plus you can't tell when the ad to update flash is actually a virus waiting
to kill your computer. I have adobe set to update my adobe apps
automatically (well, they tell me the update is available and I allow it to
be updated), so I feel I can ignore those ads when they pop up.
