Hi
When I try to open any video in youtube using IE7, I get a message at youtube saying "Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's FlashPlayer. Click Here to install the latest version of Adobe FlashPlayer" When I click there to install, it begins the installation from the Adobe website and keeps quiting with the error message "Adobe FlashPlayer ActiveX Setup - Failed to install - For troubleshooting tips, please see http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_19166. The only recent change to my system is the automatic update of 1 Windows Update this week and since that 1 update, I have been experiencing this problem. The videos play fine in Mozilla so this is just happening in IE7. I already reset IE7 to factory settings but the same problem occurs. Any idea why this happening and is there a solution to the problem?
thanks
