    you need to download and run a different flash plugin installer for firefox. the internet explorer version will not work in firefox.

    what happens when you go to a flash website when you are using firefox? do you not see a link telling you to download flash?

    Are you using the 64 bit version of 7? I am and found that if I open the 64 bit version of IE8 and try to download flash player, I get an error, it seems Adobe flash player doesn't support it.

    Its no problem if I open up IE8 32 bit and then download flash player.

    There is no 64-bit version of Adobe Flash, so any 64-bit browser is basically worthless in todays WWW, where a lot of sites are based on Flash.

    Adobe says that they are working on a Windows 64-bit version, but they are no ETA yet.

Adobe labs have announced the release of the 64 bit Flash player 10.1 and Active X. See attached for info. Regretably it will not work with IE 64 bit. Adrian Adobe only has 64 bit flash for Linux. There is no 64 bit flash for Windows yet. See this thread for more info....
