| Adobe Flash nag on vista Every time I open a webpage i get the following message Warning message when you upgrade Adobe Flash Player in Internet Explorer 7 on a Windows Vista-based computer: "This program will open outside of Protected mode" Microsoft have been useless in helping me out by passing me onto my Pc manufacturer, and gues swhat my pc manufacturer passed me straight back onto microsoft. Reference for this problem is kb 934282 however microsoft have said they have removed the hotfix and told me to give acer a call.. I am desperate to fix this problem. Does anyone have any ideas |

Does anyone have any ideas[/color] I'm just curious, maybe you can explain it to me Carey, I don't actually expect an answer, just "thinking out loud", so to speak. I've often tried to help people in groups like this and have sometimes been successful, other times not, but that's not really my question . . . I just sometimes wonder why I so often see people having a problem with a third-party application but the first thing they seem to want to do is contact Microsoft about the problem, instead of the vendor that actually designed the program they are having trouble with. I had the same problem with Flash and went right to Adobe's site. Didn't find the exact problem in their help section, but after searching through the tips and tricks the instructions for uninstalling and reinstalling to solve "unlisted" problems was there and it worked just fine. Took me all of 5 minutes to look for, find, and do the repair. Mic |
