Adobe Flash Player

Why do I have to install Flash Player 11 daily on IE? Suggestions TIA for your time

Because flash player's installer/updater is a POS. I have seen this on a few machines at work, the updater wants to constantly run, despite already being on the latest version.

I recommend the following.
1) Use a different browser than IE. Chrome and Firefox are great options. If you never use IE then you don't need flash player installed on it. It's one less thing to keep updated/one less vector to be attacked at.
2) If you do use IE (See #1) and need flash player for some reason, I would uninstall flash player and manually reinstall it.

Select the Trusted Sites zone.
If the Default Level button is not dimmed, select it.
Move the slider until the security level is Medium.
Click Apply.
Click Custom Level.
Find the section "Scripting."
Set Active scripting to Enable.
Click OK.
Select the Internet zone and repeat steps d to j.
Click OK. Close Internet Explorer and then restart it.

(If you use Internet Explorer 9) Disable ActiveX filtering:

In Internet Explorer, select Tools > Safety. If ActiveX Filtering is selected, deselect it.
Close Internet Explorer and then restart it.

A novel approach may be to just open up the Flash Player control panel applet and I believe under the Advanced tab you will find the setting to Never check for updates. Only stumbling block there will be if a site is running content that only the latest version of Flash can render, but then all you have to do is update manually.

Considering how many security problems are found with Adobe Flash player on what seems to be a monthly update at the minimum this seems like a very risky move that I would not recommend to anyone who doesn't like cleaning up an infected system.

Agreed to an extent. I've yet to experience these security problems with Adobe Flash but the prompts I get for updates come from the plugin for Firefox as I never use the one for IE.

The other setting worth mention is Notify me to install updates so at least it lets the OP know but does not install or make the OP install.
