Hi,

Iv a problem with my adobe flash player. It doesnt seem to want to come onto my PC. I usually use it on BEBO or youtube.com and when i go to play a video clip it tells me that i do not have flash player 8 r whatever and then i click on the link to install it and it takes me to the adobe website and to a page on it for installing the falshplayer thing the links is 'http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash' then i click install, it comes up download complete and when i go back into bebo/youtube it still doesnt work.

You will prob need to ask me more q's but thats the basics.

Hi

Try installing using a different browser e.g Opera or Firefox.

Hi

Firefox download (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/products/download.html?product=firefox-2.0&os=win&lang=en-GB)

Opera (http://www.opera.com/)

I had this problem before and by using an alternative browser I was able to install Flash.

I have, however, heard of people trying this method and it not working. Try your luck I suppose.

Install one (or both) of the browsers above and tryinf installing Flash through them.

Cheers
