I have been trying to load Adobe's Flash Player from the web site. Everytime I do it asks for permission to run Active X. When I click to allow IE 8 freezes and I have to go to Task Manager to close. I am using Windows XP for home and am the administrator. |

Select XP (get.adobe.com) then continue, then IE, download flash, close IE, then install |

It could be an addon / toolbar thats hanging IE. It maybe corrupt or something. WHAT addons , or toolbars have you installed? |

I have removed any malware and the only addons I have intalled are Google Tool Bar and Google Chrome. I have tried again but as soon as I move my curser over the Add Active X control bar IE8 freezes. Of interest is that when I look at this to close in Task Manager I note that IE8 shows 2 times and regardless which version I click to close it closes the browser. |

So did you download it, then run it instead?? We are talking about the 32 bit version of IE right?? Because flash doesnt work with the 64 bit version |

Sorry but haven't got near to downloading but since looking again it is asking for an Active X to download Adobe Download Manager and when I attempt to click to install it freezes the IE8 browser. I have attempted to download on my other machine which has Vista installed and IE7 it worked fine. |

Cool, if you had malware what was it? And what program did you use to remove it? |
