Have had Flash Player running for years, suddenly it was gone. Now I've spent two nights trying all the suggestions on Adobe website. Uninstalled the pervious version and deleted the files. Installation seems to run just fine, I even get to the "Flash Player Installation Successful" screen. But, if I then go to the "Find Version" page, I don't see any movie. I don't get any error. I just get a blank box. I've been through this exact sequence two times, so I need some other suggestions.
OS: Windows XP Home Edition 2002
Firefox: 20.0
Flash version: 11.7.700.169 claims to have installed
Note: when I look in the Flash Player section of Control Panel it correctly shows the Flash version, but it also says "ActiveX Version: Not Installed" Do I need ActiveX to run FlashPlayer in Firefox?
