I have been trying to install flash player for a while now, i ve tried everything from reinstalling IE7 and reinstalling AntiVirus.
I currently have nod32 and no firewall.
when i go to adobe page to download the player it starts but after few secs takes me back to the installation page.

572026 2007-07-24 07:39:00 Perhaps you need XP service pack 2, and/or other windows updates before you can install (especially the current Windows Installer version, is up to 3.1 I think (noticed you had SP1a in your computer specs)). :) feersumendjinn (64)
572027 2007-07-24 07:53:00 Did it say it was blocking activex in the info bar near the menu??

Thats what it said, after I formatted the other PC here. And this has SP2 on it.

Its on the site not a file u download. Altho I think there is an activex install somewhere.

Get it here instead (www.filehippo.com)

Scan it first, I downloaded something from here before it had a virus in it.

speedy..i have used the activex install but it still gives me the same error at youtube "Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player. "

i checked to see if javascript but its enabled.

572029 2007-07-24 21:19:00 Is Sun Java installed then?

How many entries of Flash are in Add/remove programs??

If theres more than 1 besides the link I gave, uninstall the other versions. Close the browser.

Click on the entries saying Adobe flash player activex. (where it says click here for support information).

If it doesnt say 9.0.47.0, uninstall it. Then open the browser again.

572031 2007-07-25 07:43:00 Cant think of anything else, the only other thing is the site itself is screwed.

You could try getting it from the Adobe site but then you'll have to find out how to fix it if its blocking activex.

Or send Adobe an email, tell them to fix it.

572034 2007-07-25 11:31:00 Hi Gumdigger

You must first remove all traces of previous attempts of installing the Adobe Flash Player before reinstallation .

Download the uninstaller from HERE ( . adobe . com/selfservice/viewContent . do?externalId=tn_14157&sliceId=2" target="_blank">kb . adobe . com) .
