For some reason recently any site that I go to that has flash on it, I have to click on it before I can use the flash. It is really stupid and annoying and I HATE Microsoft for doing it. Has anyone figured out a way to turn this stupid ass feature off? Thanks in advance..

you can't. it's part of microsoft's "screw up internet explorer even more to try and stop viruses and spyware". it isn't working. What you really need is Mozilla Firefox. The browser thats better than IE by far.

This same thing happened to me.  I went to the Control Panel, Add/Remove, and uninstalled Macromedia Flash stuff.  Then I restarted, and went to the Macromedia site and downloaded the stuff for Flash Player and installed it.  Then I typed "test flash player" or "flash player test site" in google and found the site, went to it, and did the test.  It said I had it installed fine, and I did.

Usually,the IE7 absorbs the plug ins fr IE6 but I think you need to install a later version of macromedia flashplayer as a plug-in and see whther your problems are solved.If they arent,you can uninstall IE7 from the add/remove programs in your control panel.YOU DONT NEED TO REINSTALL INTERNET EXPLORER6 as it is inbuilt in windows!!!!No problem in doing this,I have dunnit myself!Do make sure you update your IE6,it has a hotfix.

No matter what you do, I can do a screen save or shoot a pic of the browser window with any of a dozen utilities, or download the image straight off the site without using a browser.\n\nIt is pointless to try, and these things are so common knowledge that trying them just makes you look foolish. Lest you think I am kidding, go to the url below and scroll down until you get to this statement (it's the 6th site down): \nThe "Only Stupid People Think You Can Protect Your Content By Disabling the Right Mouse Click" Award Goes to:\n\nhttp://www.webpagesthatsuck.com/worst-web-design-featured-on-web-pages-that-suck-in-2005.html\n\n\nAll you can really do to protect your images is to watermark them.

Do the world a favor and look at XHTML, instead of Flash. There's plenty of bad Flash sites on the Web, but not nearly enough good XHTML.

Hai no need for any special software, Because flash files generally get down loaded in the local system, You can search for those files in the following location with .swf extension\n\n(So plz use F3 to search through the path as *.swf)\n\n* In Windows Xp\n\nC:&#92;\nDocuments and Settings&#92;\nYour User Name&#92;\nLocal Settings&#92;\nTemporary Internet Files&#92;\n*.swf\n\n\n* In General for all other sys\n\nIn IE Go to\n(Tools->Internet Options->Settings->View files(Then search for *.swf files)

What browser version are you using to install it? It sounds like IE or another software is blocking the installation. Try this direct link to a installable file instead of the activex install that I believe they use on their site.  http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/licensing/win/install_flash_player_active_x.msi

Can't say I've tried Y! estate to be honest but I HAVE had problems on Youtube and many other sites that use flashplayers, flash, or shockwave flash. It has caused both firefox 1.5 and 2 to both crash repeatedly - despite numerous restarts, removals, reinstalls, etc.\n\nI don't like firefox as much as I used to. I've also noticed that it eats a lot of memory sometimes for no apparent reason.\n\nGo back to IE - I know there are numerous security flaws with it but firefox is going the same way now too.\n\nBetter still switch back to good old netscape. The latest version is very good.\n\nJ

I'm not very tech minded, But I'm willing to suggest trying the "Adobe Flash Support" link.\n\nhttp://www.adobe.com/support/

Flash takes some time to load on the IE browser. If you do not prompt this, probably the user will close the browser before the flash module appear on the site. so we use this to keep the user informed..

It's Microsoft's new security feature designed to prevent possible attacks through active content in webpages.\n\nThe final IE7 release (which some of us already have) offers the option of always allowing flash objects to load without a prompt.\n\nThe IE7 Beta 2 v1 release allowed you to click on the flash movie one time and then would not prompt you to activate it upon a reload.

Well you should be able to get macromedia flash player 6 using a p2p client like Ares or Limewire\nbut try using another browser instead.. I use Mozilla Firefox... and have no problem with it, it installs the flash player automatically, only the latest flash player wont be available for it as soon as it is available for internet explorer.. try it.. Good LUck
