hope you all had a nice weekend

have a new issue; in trying to view some videos on cnn & msnbc.com, it says
i need adobe flash player, so i follow the onscreen instructions but it's
not working.

i have clicked on download, then the yellow bar pops open, which i click on
& say yes, then "run" on the next window, but nothing happens. have tried it
w/ the browser open, then closed & nothing.

i go to their support center, & it says to use their uninstaller, which i
do, then start fresh, & all that's in the add/remove is the reader 9.1 &
adobe air.

any ideas ?

many thanks

In your other thread, you mentioned you have SpywareBlaster. Go into
Tools and then Flash Killer. You should see a box next to "Disable and
block Macromedia (or Adobe) Flash in Internet Explorer." Is it checked?
If yes, uncheck it!

daave, thanks as it is unchecked. & tried both cnn & msnbcs websites again &
still says i need to update my version of adobe flash. i also went to
filehippo.com & tried to d/l it from there & still not working.

well, now it seems to be downloading properly; it's taking some 3-4 minutes,
not the 10 seconds it did the prior attempts. if not, i'll post again, if
so, this thread will be done - thanks again. it's odd as the only thing
different is i did open the spyware blaster>tools, but the box was not
checked !

well, spoke too soon as my aim was off as it was adobe reader not flash, so
i did it again, on flash this time & it took 30 seconds, total & i got a
box, saying "completed" so i opened the details & pasted below, if this
helps any.

Delete file: C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\install.log
Output folder: C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash
Execute: "C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\uninstall_activeX.exe"
Extract: Flash10b.ocx
Extract: FlashUtil10b.exe
Registering: C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\Flash10b.ocx
Created uninstaller:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\uninstall_activeX.exe
Completed

in looking at the add/remove page, i see something called capicom & checked
wikipedia - below - could this be the source of the recent issues. both with
this flash update & the bank site ? most likely not, but wanted to check as
it does say it has been discontinued.

thanks
