flash player installation

[phillipa.d]

Hello Abers, hope you are all well. Haven't posted on here for ages, but have looked in from time to time and still see loads of old familiars up to their old tricks...

Any road up, I am having a bit of trouble and think someone here will be able to help. Quite a lot lately I want to visit sites, but they say I need Flash player to view them, usually they offer a link to get flash player, so I follow the links and wait whilst it installs... then... nothing! I get the message "Installation successful" but when I try to visit the site again, it is the same old problem; Flash player not installed (???)

What am i doing wrong?

I'm not too clever with computers (can u tell?) but I expect one of you guys will be able to tell me what to do (and prob really simple, too!!) :)

TIA!!

I recently went from Interent Explorer 7 to 8 and found flash would not work.

I was told to download the flash uninstaller and run it.

Then close down the browser.

Open the browser and then install Flash.

You can get the uninstaller from here
