"Flash required for this application"

"Your browser is blocking Flash. You must have Flash 9.0 or higher installed and unblocked to run an openmail application. You can download and install the latest Flash Player here."

I have the latest (11.xxx) version loaded and enabled. Why won't this pop-up go away?

I do not yet understand the full implications of this but note this comment /forums/contributors/708233?last=46007&page=2#post-46006

"Your browser is blocking Flash" - A change to Flash last week makes some flash version detection methods break. This affects Yahoo mail (also Att mail and others that are based on Yahoo). The solution is to switch to "classic mode" in the email program.

It only happens when you go into email initially, and clicking ok, it goes away, so no biggie, I guess. Will wait for email client to fix.

AT&T and Yahoo had similar issues, if you were trying to use their website they should be fixed by now.
