Problems with flash player?
Okay, as of yesterday I've been having random problems with Flash. It started when I went to a website to play some flash games. All of them work fine...except for one, which gave me an error message and told me I needed to get flash. So I clicked the link to get it, figuring I needed the latest version or something, which was 10, and downloaded it. It told me my installation was successful, although I never saw the "installation movie" I was supposed to. I went back to play the flash game...same problem. I rebooted my computer...didn't work. I uninstalled and reinstalled...still nothing. Now I've noticed that a bunch of pages that use flash aren't working for me anymore, like YouTube. I've checked my internet security settings to make sure I've got the proper things enabled, and I do.
Any idea what the problem could be, and why flash would randomly stop working in some places out of the blue while still working in others?
I did get flash from adobe.com, but I'm going to see if I can get an older version...hopefully that'll help.
I'm happy to say that a system restore cleared the problem right up. I *think* the issue might've been the newest Windows update...

Try uninstalling Flash, then finding and installing an old version, it could be a problem with the new version of Flash
