Adobe Flash Installer wanted to install Helper Apps

The Adobe Flash Player Install Manager, version 32.0.0.142 (32.0.0.142) popped up and wanted me to update the Flash Player.

I searched the internet and that version was the latest so I decided to accept it.

I checked the URL and it was an adobe.com website so I thought:  Adobe - Adobe Flash Player Download

https: //get3.adobe.com/flashplayer/update/osx/  (I had to include a space between the : and // to be able to type in the URL).

I hit the Update now button and opened it up and ran it.  After entering my admin password, it installed Adobe Flash Player (I believe) and then it asked to install a "Helper" app.  I hit cancel and again I got a request to install another "Helper" app.  Again I refused.

Is Adobe including spam apps now?  I hope that the Flash Player is okay, but I'm concerned.  Please advise.

Thank you.
