Adobe flash player would not load. I have loaded Shockwave flash player and it works ok. Must be a problem with Adobe.

Your More System Details doesn't show that Flash is installed for Firefox, or it is disabled in Firefox.

Are you aware that Firefox users a different version of Flash (Plugin version) than IE uses (ActiveX version), so you need to have the Plugin version installed for Firefox.
