572036 2007-07-26 08:49:00 So what happened, after u used that uninstaller, reinstalled that activex install, then right mouse on a flash ad?? Clicked on about in IE?

Did it take you to the Adobe site and say it was installed successfully?

Did u close IE after u installed that ActiveX file then try again?

Thats what I had to do with these 2. Everytime I went to install it from the site, it did what u said, went round in circles and said IE was blocking activex.

So, in the end I used that uninstaller, reinstalled that ActiveX file, went to Ihug's homepage clicked on the flash ad / about, and it took me to the Adobe site and it said Adobe player is installed.

The options for Activex (to disable/enable), will be under security in Tools/internet options, its not an addon.

Altho I dont know why I installed flash in the first place, I dont go to any sites that use it.

Just a thought. If you used the uninstaller I gave you the link to, (THAT UNINSTALLER), did you close all the IE windows before using it? The uninstaller can not remove files in use.

Go HERE (www.adobe.com) and put TROUBLE INSTALLING into search box for further ideas. On this page too is a forum where you can get Flash Player support. Suggest you use it.
