Annoying Flash problem

Patricide

Ok basicly the story is that whenever im trying to see a flash component on a webpage, where the video is meant to be im told i need to install flash. So i click on the link to install it off the flash site and i install it.

Everything goes peachy and it says that it was sucessfully installed and that i must restart all instances of internet explorer do this now, yes, no? I click yes and it closes and reopens inernet explorer. However when i go trying to view anything with flash it just says that i need to install flash again!!

Ive tried restarting my computer and clearing my cookies and everything but nothings maing a difference, ideas anyone?(running vista btw)

Take note of where it is supposedly installing it to during the installation. Go to that folder and there should be a Setup.exe file. Double click it and let that install. Should hopefully sort your problem out. Had to do it myself.

cant find wher the file is saving into, argh!!! what was ure default directory?

I honestly can't remember I'm afraid. Try installing again but watch carefully what it is doing.
