No matter what I have tried, PSI insists that I need to install Flash for Internet Explorer, although Flash for IE is installed and works fine. I've tried uninstalls and reinstalls both for Flash and PSI to no avail. The only PSI versions I have tried were the RC4 and the 1.0.0.1 final versions. Both of them say Flash for IE needs to be installed. Anyone have this problem or know what might be causing this? Al |

Anyone else seeing this? @developer: How does PSI determine if flash needs to be installed? Everyone else says it is installed except PSI. Even the scan says it is installed :-) Al |

Same here - installed flash several times, couldn't get it to run. Seems to be a common problem... Regards, Dietmar |

I would appreciate if you would open Internet Explorer and go to http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?ext... That webpage will try to detect whatever Flash is correctly installed in your browser, and then tell you what version it has detected. Please copy and paste the reported version information into this thread. It is important that you use Internet Explorer when you visit the above website, as the PSI relies on Flash being installed in that exact browser. |

Hi! You need to download one version of flash for IE (and IE based browsers) and another for Firefox and the other browers). However PSI uses the IE version. If PSI does not show graphs, try rebooting your computer. Underlien -- LG S900 Laptop 3GB RAM - Intel Dual Core 1.80 GHz Ubuntu Linux 9.04 Virtual Machines running Windows Vista and Windows XP |

Copied from another thread I did if U require detailed instructions. This link will tell U all about Flash: http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/ If Secunia is telling U that U have an insecure Flash element it should be removed. If this is the case I would: Remove all versions of Flash from the C drive of your PC: 1. Download & use the flash Uninstaller from here: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?ext... 2. Reboot to clear out any left over ocx files. 3. Rescan using PSI - if there are any insecure Flash elements left what is the path to them? (The overview page may look a little odd because it uses Flash for the pictorials) 4. Reinstall the latest Internet Explorer Flash Player from here: http://www.macromedia.com/software/flash/about/ 3A.If U are also using Firefox, Opera and other Gecko-based browsers U need this link as well: http://www.filehippo.com/download_flashplayer_fire... U may have seen an excellent thread from Bob Primak who highlighted the problem of many users not knowing where to set up the security settings of Flash once installed. I fairly simple task if U know where to look. This is the link to YOUR settings: http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en... All U need to do is select each tab - read what it does and then select the security option that meets your requirements.This action should be completed each time U update Flash as a minimum so worth keeping the web link. -- Maurice Windows 7 SP1 64 Bit OS HP Intel Pentium i7 IE 10 for Windows 7 16GB RAM |

Thank you Underlien and Maurice. I followed your advice and now it works. Basically, the secret is throw out all macromedia stuff using add-remove-programs (or Revo) and then start over. And, although using a Gecko browser (I suppose that means Firefox and Chrome), not to be put off by Secunia requiring the IE-Version of flash player. -- Win7 Ultimate 32-bit, Firefox, Office 2007 Enterprise |

Nearly - Adobe advise to only use their uninstaller and NOT add/remove or its sexy sister Revo. This is a clip from the Adobe website: "Due to recent enhancements to the Adobe Flash Player installers, you can now remove the player only by using the Adobe Flash Player uninstaller. To remove Flash Player, simply download and run the appropriate uninstaller for your system using the steps below" -- Maurice Windows 7 SP1 64 Bit OS HP Intel Pentium i7 IE 10 for Windows 7 16GB RAM |
