    Running, you will get teh uninstaller, perform it.
    Attachment 217765

    If there are more than one, run teh both, and get your system free from flash player.

    now download the older version that I pointed out to you. Install it. The problem should not be there anymore, I hope.
    thanks a lot Arc

    I did that.

    To install Java clean-completely remove the existing version(s). If using RevoUninstaller you may see more than 1 and both need to go. Now, go to the Java website nd download the offline installer for Windows.
    Hi sorry, I went to http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/ja...ads/index.html

    and the word "Offline" is nowhere on the page, and "offline installer windows" in their search box did not come up with anything that made sense, so I don't know where to get this offline installer, sorry.

    thanks.

    Hi Arc,

    sorry I meant I uninstalled, but have not installed the older version yet because I am waiting to hear where to get the "offline installer for windows" for Java.

    Haven't a clue what Java is, or why it's connected to Flash, but the other guy said I need it, so I just like to cover all angles.

    thanks

    Lol, whatever Java is, flash player is not related with it.

    OK thanks Arc, I will try downloading the same version of Flash as last time. Let's hope it will not give me two installs this time.

    OK now what's happening is when I go to download Flash Player 11.3.300.214 Beta 1 (Non-IE) 64-bit, it is automatically downloading the latest version (11.3.300.262) instead.

    I just did it twice to make sure I did not make a mistake, and Adobe has highjacked older versions with the latest version!

    Try an even older version ?

    Very odd !

    I just downloaded Flash Player 11.2.202.235 (Non-IE) 64-bit.

    I also got rid of the old text document, as I suspected the history in that determined the outcome of new installs.

    The Task Manager has no mention of it, so it must be inside the plugin container (as I believe it should be), as I'm not being told on YouTube's home page that I need the Flash plugin.

    So it seems ok, touch wood!

    thanks a lot
