    Hi everyone,

    I'm a teacher and I was really hoping to use an online ebook in class. Its from the folensonline website so very reputable but it wouldn't open because something was wrong with the adobe flash player. No problems before this!! So I uninstalled the old adobe flash player and downloaded adobe flash player 11 and it didnt work. In fact, now I can't use loads of my usual websites because windows explorer says I dont have any flash player at all.... :( Internet is useless without flash player

    Any idea why this is happening? It's probably my own fault bt I'm just looking for an easy fix for this problem... as I'm not good with computers at all.

    Did you install Flash Player from Internet Explorer? There are separate versions for IE and non-IE browsers.

    Miss, get yourself over to FireFox town. Firefox is what you need. Good Luck and be safe.
