    Adobe Flash 9 Not Working on Some Sites
    I have Windows Vista Premium and I run on IE7. I have some web sites that use Adobe Flash 9 I surf on, but when I go to some they don't work. I go to the flash page and download it and it shows it works on that page, I manage the addins and it shows it is enabled, but still it does not work on some websites. I downloaded Firefox, added in the addin and it works just to compare. Anyone have a suggestions of a setting I'm missing on IE7 that will fix this?

    Here is one page it does not work on: Beaver Village . Under Beaver Village it should show pics via flash, but does not work. I was trying to review the places to stay and can't see pics using IE7.

    Thanks for the feedback. I downloaded and installed it and it still does not work. :( . This just seems really odd to me.

    Sorry.. for some reason that didn't work either. I will try some other things and just use Firefox as needed.

    If a webpage with the same flash content does not work in all browsers, (Chrome, Opera, IE, Firefox, Safari, etc), go to Adobe's Global Manager web page:http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_ manager.html or just right click on the blank Flash player and select " Global Settings", navigate to Global Storage Settings Panel and check the box that says "Allow third party flash content to store data on your computer". This setting applies to your user account ONLY and will have to be checked on every instance of a new user account on your computer(s). While you are there, check the "Never ask Again" box. This will prevent every new site you visit from prompting to allow for storage on your computer. (who cares, it's a temporary allocation). Also check the third box "Store common Flash Components...."(why wouldn't you want this?)
