Did you use the Adobe un-installer to remove the previous version of the Flash Player? I only ask this because I have not been able to watch vids in IE7 since I downloaded the last version.At the time I never knew about Adobe`s uninstllr and I just used add/remove programs in Windows. This time I used their`s to remove the last version before downloading and installing the new one.Now the problem is fixed. What I did was this-Download and run the un-installer Reboot Download new Flash Player and install it. Reboot again Also bear in mind that IE uses the Active X player and if you use Firefox you will have to download the Flash Player plug-in again to be able to watch vids with this browser.In your program menu you should have Adobe Active X and Adobe Flash Player plug-in listed separately. Hope this helps solve your problem.
