Flash Player

Hi all

Just come back from hols and my PC seems to be a bit quirky - maybe it missed me - and no one else has used it


When I go onto any sites that have animation i.e Cbeebies for daughter, it tells me i do not have the up to date Flash player.

I then install flash player, and reboot

I go back and keep getting the same message that I need to install the latest version

Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening?

Thanks

    First thing I'd try is uninstalling Adobe Flash player altogether from add/remove programs. Then go back to adobe.com and reinstall. Sometimes works better than overwriting/repairing an installation.
