If you visit a site and you are prompted to install Flash Player 10.37 to view the "video", promptly close that page and do NOT go looking for this download. As of 10/20/2010, Adobe's flash player version is up to 10.1. Version 10.37 is fake.
For confirmation, visit Adobe's forum here:

This is a common tactic to get people to install malware. Even if your ISP or company manages to block the initial download attempt, search engines are getting poisoned with links pointing to freeware sites actually hosting the fake flash player.
If you need to install or update your flash player, ALWAYS download it directly from Adobe. Do not get it or accept it from any other site. This also applies to any other professional product you use - don't trust anybody but the original creator of the product.
