with them, but I still want my users to be able to install the app much
easier regardless.
"Adobe Flash" covers a wide range of deployment possibilities. It sounds
like you're asking for ways to safely and easily install a desktop
application from a web browser.
If so, then keep an eye on the upcoming Apollo project:

Other than that, you can always wrap the Adobe Flash Player in a
native-code executable (as regular Projector or third-party shell) and
use the browser's regular installation mechanism to download and
activate. I wouldn't accept EXEs from strangers myself, but that's one
way to do it with current technology.
