Flash player 11 (11.1.102.55) disables itself every time I reboot! Win 7 -Thinkpad T500

Question

   Craziest thing has happened to my laptop.  For about 3 weeks I have had this issue.  Everytime I reboot, Adobe Flash player diables itself.  I say disable rather than uninstalls since when I look into the Programs section under Control Panel it says Flash Player 11.1.102.55 is there.   But when I try to play something such as a YouTube video or anything that requires Flash Player it will not run and says " You need to Upgrade your Adobe Flash Player"  or  in the case of a YouTube video embedded in a website it says "The Adobe Flash Player or an HTML5 supported browser is required for video playback.".  I use IE 9 for my browser.  I then have to re-install Flash Player onto the laptop and then I can once again play video.
Then I just saw the followng item today when I booted my computer up in the morning. First time I have seen this.   Upon Bootup and not doing a single thing to the laptop but booting up, Windows gave me a message that said " Adobe Flash Player Installer/Uninstaller 10.1 r102 has stopped working".  It then generated a few files for me and asked if I wanted to send more infoarmtion about the problem.  One of the files was a .txt file.    The other was a mdmp fil and the other was a .xml file.  The .txt file is copied below.  
Can someone help me fix this!
Thank you,
Marc

For those that were following along with this thread, we were able to find the culprit by examining the FlashInstall.log.  The log looked like this:
=O====== M/10.1.102.64 2012-01-24+01-17-54.633 ========

This told me that something called "C:\ProgramData\MediaMall\if.exe" was uninstalling then immediately installing itself on system startup.  We tracked this executable down to a service called PlayOn.  Once this service was disabled, Marc was able to install the latest version of Flash Player without having it uninstalled the next time he rebooted.
