Did you yet try uninstalling and reinstalling the Adobe Flash Player activeX
control?

You can download the installer from the Adobe site.

http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html gives you...

http://download.macromedia.com/pub/f...02_flash10.zip

When you finish downloading the ZIP, unzip it. Then look
for the "Release" folder. The two files you want are

Install Flash Player 10 ActiveX.exe 1,955,472 bytes

Install Flash Player 10 Plugin.exe 1,923,768 bytes

The first of those files, installs Flash in Internet Explorer.

The second of those files, does the same for Firefox or other
Netscape-family browsers.

That allows finer control, of which browser has Flash installed.

The advantage of using those installers, is the browsers do
not have to be running during the installation, and there
could be fewer "security" barriers to completing the install.

HTH,
Paul

I don't know what you mean by release folder..I have done everything else

OK. Unzip the downloaded file, then look for the file. The
file is located in the following directory structure. You should
be seeing a "Players" folder and a "Release" folder, and then
the files are in there. I have to tell you that, because there
are two files with identical names. The other file is in the
"Debug" folder, and you don't want that one.

flash_player_update_201002_flash10
Players
Release
Install Flash Player 10 ActiveX.exe"

Hope that helps,
Paul

Shockwave test (has link to Flash test)

http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/

Flash test

http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/

On the right hand side of the Flash test, it
gives the version information. Mine reads

"You have version 10,0,45,2 installed"

HTH,
Paul

My version is 10,0,42,34 but I don't pass the test...Adobe support page says
I should download as the administrator and uninstall existing items in
add/remove

I have the entry

Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X

in my Add/Remove programs, and that is the one I'd use if I
wanted to remove Flash for Internet Explorer. If it is
installed using the browser and a web page, I don't know
if you get an Add/Remove entry from that or not.

Other than that, if you still can't get it working, there could
be a more serious problem there. Perhaps something
registry related, or some active malware on the
computer.
