Adobe flash player 11.1.102.63



Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player

Thank you Aaron. First post updated. :)

Finally. Now I can actually use Flash in IE9 again... Hopefully

Thanks Aaron, downloaded.

I just don't get it. Browsing through a website with heavy flash content in IE9 creates a nasty memory leak that either crashes the browser tab or freezes the whole PC. Damn!

What nvivda drivers you using? Using their latest 295.73?

Have you tried the the 11.2 RC flash player yet?


They mention that on nVidia, and their solution is to use the Beta 11.2 flash version. When mentioned it was at beta 5, It's now at RC.

Try that instead.

Downloaded 11.1.102.63 for FF and IE. FF version installed fine but IE version said there is a newer version and won't install. Don't use IE very much so no big deal.

Hey, thanks for that! I had the latest GPU drivers from nVidia (295.73). I think I had also installed the RC version of Flash, and that it didn't work. I will try it one more time, though, and see.

EDIT: Unfortunately, it didn't work. I tested YouTube videos by going through a random channel and opening the videos in new tabs (as I so often do) and it still behaves like usual. A single iexplore.exe process in Task Manager continuously takes more and more RAM, and at about 850MB of RAM taken, Flash crashes by controlling the volume, or using the progress bar, changing the stream quality... pretty much everything. If I try to close the tab, IE either crashes and recovers the tab or freezes the browser.
On a different website the amount of RAM jumps up pretty fast and just freezes the system completely.

It don't think it is the video card. I had the same problem and I am using an ATI 5770 video card.
I updated to the RC and am not getting the out of memory error any more.
However, it does seem to be more stable with Firefox than IE9.

At first I thought it was because of the Flash, but it's probably due to the GPU drivers in my case. I wouldn't really want to do a rollback to a previous version because Adobe distributes updates to Flash more often than nVidia does for its GPU drivers.

I guess I'm just stuck on Firefox for now

fnb111 et al., when you say you uninstalled it did you use the adobe 32-bit uninstaller app from the uninstallation section of the 11.2 link above? did you then try the 32-bit 11.2 RC on the same page?
