    Adobe Flash player
    All right, here it goes; for some reason adobe flash player isn't working anymore on my computer. We had it before, it worked fine. But when I was gone for only two days, flash player was gone, like it won't work anymore... I have tried re-installing it, it keeps saying "installation completed successfully" but every time I go to YouTube or something like that that needs flash player it says that I still need to install it! I have tried to re-install it several times but I get the same results... nothing.

    Why could this be?

    Do you know if anything was changed the 2 days while you were gone?

    Particularly any Software or Hardware that you installed or setup.

    I don't know... this is a family computer, so I wouldn't know if anything screwed it up... But its really starting to upset me.

    Uninstall adobe again, use the registry cleaner apps again and see if resetting IE defaults might help.

    So, uninstall, registry cleaner,
    -Open IE, tools, internet options, advanced tab, go to bottom and click on the 'Reset Defaults' button and click OK

    Now close IE and repeat these steps:

    The second link in both of your posts. I can't make a log in. And Apparently, I don't even have adobe at all anymore for some reason, it wasn't uninstalled, or even touched. I don't know what to do.
