I'm pretty sure this is your problem. Your installation of Adobe Air seems to come together with your copy of Adobe Flash CS3, thus it is not a "standalone" installation, and apparently Adobe's own installer for Adobe Air can't see it nor update it...
You should complain to Adobe about it... but I'm not sure how much it would help :(

I don't really think it is Secunia's fault that the vendor (Adobe) follows a bad practice, and personally, I would much rather prefer to know that an insecure version of a program is on my computer, than sit here and think everything is good.
But I can follow you that it is annoying that its not easy to update.
