Hello,
ever since I installed the latest Internet Explorer (8) Adobe Flash Player wont work at all. For example - On sites such as : www.allsp.net and www.explosm.net - any video that requires flash wont play, and comes up with a small image in the top left hand corner of a few colourful shapes.

What can I do? I dont know how to uninstall INX 8, and I really want flash to work.
I have tried re-installing it, but it just says " save file" and not install, or run.

Suggestions please? I also tried it using the Firefox browser, same problem.

Adobe flashplayer worked on Mozilla Firefox but not on Internet explorer 8. Youtube kept saying java tuned off or old version of flashplayer, and to download the latest version of flashplayer. I already had the latest flashplayer installed, but I tried downloading it again anyway, but could not install Adobe flashplayer as the latest version was already installed, and the download was disrupted. I went in on IE8 tools and found the flashplayer,and disabled it. When I went back in on the IE8 tools it had vanished to my surprise. Now even the small AOL videos that worked no longer worked on IE 8 . I tried Mozilla and everything worked fine, and the flashplayer still showed in the set program access. I could not install Adobe before disabeling it in IE 8, but after disabeling it and causing it to vanish in the IE8 tools settings , this time it did install using IE 8 for the download. I then got the small AOL videos to work again but youtube still would not work. I then downloaded Java Script through IE 8 , and then youtube worked fine on IE 8. I have no idea why nothing would work on IE8, but was fine on Mozilla. I also had ran Java tests on IE 8 and Java said it was working properly, and obviously it wasn't. I am not sure, but I think it might be important to download these items through the web browser, in this case IE 8,that you are having problems with. I think if I had attempted to download through Mozilla it may not have solved the problem on IE 8. Hope this might help someone else with the same problem

Hi
It seems we have to wait for Adobe to update their player or make IE7 our default browser.

Similar problem. When trying to run Flash Player 10 on a fresh install of IE8 and Windows 7 x86 prompt says to download latest version. But on same box with Firefox.... no problem. This is the second serious issue I'm having with IE8.

I have tried all the above solutions...nothing worked for me. I'm running IE8 on XP. I can't even install Flash 10 ; it just returns an error while installing. Ultimately, I switched to Google Chrome and everything is working fine.
