    I doubt that it is a problem with IE. I have IE on all my computers and the latest Flash works fine for me, even on different versions of IE.

    It is possible that you have a bad cache file. Clear your history, temporary files (be patient) & cookies, then restart the computer and retry. This HELP link has instructions: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/yahoomail/se... .

    Oh, and you can UNCHECK the box that tells Adobe to install Google Chrome so it will skip that.
