Can't use Flash with IE

[the K]

I have IE 6 and whenever I go to Adobe's site to install flash, I run the
installer and get no messages that something went wrong. However, when I try
to view videos, I get the message that I have Javascript turned off or I
don't have the latest flash player. I went to tools/internet
options/advanced but didn't notice anything about Javascript.

This doesn't make sense, because I can view flash videos in Firefox fine.

Reset your IE security zones to default maybe?

"In solving a problem of this sort, the grand thing is to be able to reason
backwards. That is a very useful accomplishment, and a
very easy one, but people do not practise it much. In the every-day affairs
of life it is more useful to reason forwards, and so
the other comes to be neglected. There are fifty who can reason
synthetically for one who can reason analytically." - Sherlock

IE\Properties\Security\Custom\scroll down to Java Permission and see if the Java is turned on ,disabled etc etc

I opened IE and went to Tools/Internet Options/Security/Custom:

I see the scripting of Java applets is Enabled. I don't see anything about
Java Permission

The security level for the Intenet zone Iis set at medium.
