Re: Installing Flash in IE 7 with Vista Home Premium Installed

Hi,
Some possibilities- starting with the easiest...

Internet Options> Advanced
"Allow active content to run in files on My Computer"
Try this unchecked (default) and checked.

A possible solution from the Adobe support forums

[From bellington]
Navigate to:
C:\windows\system32\Macromed\Flash\FlashUtil9b.exe
Run the .exe and this will run an updater. After running it my Flash
problems were gone. This seems to fix most Flash problems Vista users are
getting.

A complex procedure (save this for last) see this Adobe article:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowled...fm?id=fb1634cb

Try uninstalling / reinstalling Flash Player. Use the uninstaller at
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowled...fm?id=tn_14157
Flash player download:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/

Check to see if Internet Explorer or a third-party program, toolbar or other
browser add-on is blocking scripts, scripting, ActiveX, active content, etc.

Hope this helps,
Don
