I am using a call to check for the presence of the .ocx file sin the default installation folder like this:

private void InstallFlashPlayer()
        {
            string path = Path.Combine(Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("windir"), @"system32\Macromed\Flash\");
            if (Directory.Exists(path))
            {
                if (Directory.GetFiles(path, "Flash10*.ocx") == null)
                {
                    ProcessStartInfo start = new ProcessStartInfo();
                    start.Arguments = "/s";
                    start.UseShellExecute = true;
                    start.FileName = Path.Combine(SWF.Application.StartupPath, "Fp10ActiveX.exe");
                    using (Process proc = Process.Start(start))
                    {
                        proc.WaitForExit();
                    }
                }
            }
        }
