    Hi I wonder if anyone can please help me.

    I'm trying to install adobe flash player version 9 on my pc at home, unfortunately we use AOL and I think this is causing some problems.

    I've checked out the adobe FAQ and followed their advice for checking scripting options in AOL/IE and no joy.

    When I goto the adobe flash installation page I can't even download the .exe setup file etc, its as though its blocked, checked security settings for IE and no popup blocker is on etc etc

    So I ended up putting the setup.exe on a cd at work and taking it home hoping that would work.....nope lol.

    When I start the setup wizard it says it can't find my browser plugin settings and asks me to select a location ??? guessing this is because of AOL. Tried just installing it to a defualt location but it doesnt work.

    If anyone could help me out it would be much appreciated as I'm about ready to giveup.

    Many thanks.
