Hi, i'm a fan of YouTube, but every time that i go to it, it tells me that
"Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of
Macromedia's Flash Player. Click here to get the latest flash player." The
thing is that I've installed it every time! I know i dont have an old
version. I think it must be IE that uninstalls it every time that i close it
because it works for a while then tells me that. Its the same thing for
anything flash related.

I have Vista RC2 5744 any help would be appreciated

Are you using the 64-bit version?

Internet Explorer comes in two flavours on x64, IE 64-bit is not nice with many
plugins..
 
I would go direct to the source (http://www.adobe.com/) and download and
install the latest version there instead of using a plug-in installer.

I did that, and there is a beta that supposedly supports x64, but it doesn't
seem to have an effect. I run the installer - both actually because there is
one for a ActiveX and one for plugins, and both run and still the Flash
download reminder pops up.

I tried that too, it installs very nicely without any errors, but even after
rebooting it still doesnt work. It just tells me to install the latest flash
player every time. Same thing for myspace, youtube, and even MY OWN website
tells me to get the latest version... very weird.
and like Martin said, I've also installed the activeX and the plug in from
adobe. but neither work.
