Accessing webpages
      #352430 - Sun Jun 10 2007 04:38 PM

Can anyone please help me. I have Windows XP Home edition I run Spybot S&D, AVG, CCleaner, Spyware blaster, with a dial up connection.

I am having problems during the past month or so. When I try to connect to the internet via an address in one of my emails, it takes ages (nearly 10 minutes) to download. This also happens when I try to open some websites direct.

When I manage to download the info the following message appears on top of the page. This website wants to install the following add on - Adobe Flast Player

If you trust the website and the add on and want to install it click hereX

When I try to downdoad the Adobe Flash Player I am told that for security reasons my Windows Security Centre will not allow me to down load Adobe Flash Player.

As you can imagine this is using up a lot of my valuable time online.

Thank you so much.

Yvette

Unfortunately Adobe Flash Player is a huge file and it will take forever on a dial up connection to download and install. Open IE and go to Tools, Internet Options, Security and try lowering the security level for the Internet to Medium. That should allow the download to start but make sure your internet connection doesn't go off before the download is complete.

Well, if forty-eight million, two hundred thousand, seven hundred and one people died I'd be Queen.
