I've tried installing the latest Adobe Flash Player several times, but it does not seem to work. Any suggestions?

Can't see your Installed Plugins under More system details...

Did you install the correct version of Flash?
IE uses a different version of Flash - ActiveX - than other browsers need - the Plugin version.


1.Download the Flash setup file from here:
Adobe Flash - Plugin version.
Save it to your Desktop.

2. Close Firefox using File > Exit
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure firefox.exe is closed,
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}

3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
