I don't know quite how the Flash player got into my Chrome, but all I know
is, it's there. Although I don't know for sure, I sort of suspect that when
Chrome installed, it looked for either (a) all existing Netscape plugins, or
(b) just Flash, and enabled it.
As far as I know, we (Adobe) don't have any special Chrome extension for
installing Flash player. We just have the ActiveX version and the Netscape
plugin version.
