My Macromedia flash player has all of a sudden decided not to work. When i visit any website that uses macromedia i am unable to view the videos. On spikedhumor.com i get the following error message:

Your Macromedia's Flash Player
may be out of date

Click here to upgrade your flash player.

You may also get this message if you have disabled your javascript. You must enable it to view videos.


On Youtube.com i get the following message:

Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Macromedia's Flash Player. Click here to get the latest flash player.


I have checked to makesure Javascript is turned on. I have even uninstalled and reinstalled the latest versions of both Java and Macromedia Flash Player. On the Macromedia site it says that the player was succsessfully installed. I have not installed any new software to my computer before this issue. I do not know why all of a sudden i cant watch videos. Can somebody please help. Thanks,

Ryan

Hi,

I was going to post the same problem and I saw your post. I cannot view www.nick.com with my laptop due to the same problem. It directs me to the Adobe Player Download center. I download, it says "installation successful." I go back to www.nick.com and it says I can't view the website without the flash player.

I also cannot install the latest windows update. It fails everytime.

My laptop is Windows XP SP2. Other computer using XP SP1 can load www.nick.com okay and everything works fine.
