Hi, 

                 Even when i have updated version of adobe flash player and active x from adobe.com, some sites do not play the video. A request box, install the plug in comes. When i click it, it again tries to install the same version of adobe, which i have already downloaded. it is only for some sites. 
                          May be it is because, it is site problem? How to overcome it

Try installing the latest version of your browser as well to see whether it fixes the problem

ActiveX is part of the Windows operating system. Plus the ActiveX version of Adobe Flash is for Internet Explorer. Other browsers need their own version of Flash' Firefox needs the Plugin version of Flash.

If you go to the Adobe website to download Flash while using Firefox, Adobe will provide the correct version of Flash automatically. Just make sure you de-select any other programs that Adobe may want to stick you with before you actually download Flash. Then close Firefox and run the Adobe Flash installer.

I understand your quotings. 

               I have done this thro, the site alert to update the plugins. I have done that also. But it still is not playing all the websites videos. How to get that solved?
                    It says that the adobe would not display it correctly. And when i click, it shows file is corrupt or so. When you browse a pdf link,this error occurs i suppose. I went to the option to change all the adobe to be read by adobe instead of firefox adobe. Still the problem persist.

Me, too.

With my most recent update of Flash on 12/8/2014 I am having the same problem, but the Shockwave Flash Add-On is set to "always activate."
