Bout time. Having the only access be a web page was the height of arrogance. When you most need it is probably when you're not online. Also, a nice feature is the "Check Now" button, though it's to be seen whether this works when the updates become available and not several hours/days later as happens with Adobe stuff.

... Cautionary note: Experience since Flash 10.3 was installed shows that these "settings" made by the user are reset at times without prompting (??).
So, if you're not already using the Firefox add-on BetterPrivacy, get it installed - if you already have it installed, keep it.
