Hotmail ad is causing Adobe Flash Player error (REVISED)

Hi,
This is an updated version of my question (see original question posted here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/874194)
I'm now using Internet Explorer 9.0.8112.16421 (32-bit edition) on a 64-bit Windows 7 machine and using Adobe Flash Player 10.3.181.34.
In my original question, I was receiving the following error. I am still receiving the following error. Whenever I check my e-mail on Hotmail, I get the following error:
Here are some problems:
1. When I click on "SETTINGS," the dialogue box closes, nothing else happens, and the problem doesn't go away, even after I restart the browser.
2. I also tried using the 64-bit version of Internet Explorer and Adobe Flash Player Square (beta) and received the same error.
3. The problem appears to be caused by a sidebar ad on the Hotmail home page.
4. I must use Hotmail.
5. I must use Internet Explorer for various reasons.
I would like to not have this error box pop up all the time.
Any suggestions?

Hi, I wasn't sure if that would make a difference or not. I'll see if I can find the Hotmail contact info for you.
Actually, I wouldn't want to prohibit Flash Player from putting this warning up. There is a reason and it is for your Security. As far as that Setting not working, that in my opinion is a good thing. Re-read what that Setting does. Why would that URL/ad site need to communicate with the Internet? For what purpose? Trojans like to communicate with the Internet too:-)
You nor I have no idea what this site is all about or even up to. I'd be very careful with this until I knew more about it.
I would run a full scan with your Anti-Virus and then I would report this URL and the circumstances to them.
My problem is that this URL was flagged and that it wants to communicate with the Internet. Now I've seen hundreds of ads and have not received anything like that message with that wording.
Let me know and I'll get back to you with some Hotmail info.
Thanks,
eidnolb

  • Hotmail ad is causing Adobe Flash Player error...need a fix or workaround

    Hi,
    I'm using Internet Explorer 9.0.8112.16421 (64-bit edition) on a 64-bit Windows 7 machine and using Adobe Flash Player "Square" 10.3.162.28 ActiveX 64-bit.
    Whenever I check my e-mail on Hotmail, I get the following error:
    Here are some problems:
    1. When I click on "SETTINGS," the dialogue box closes, nothing else happens, and the problem doesn't go away, even after I restart the browser.
    2. The same problem occurs even when I use the 32-bit version of Internet Explorer with the latest Adobe Flash Player.
    3. The problem appears to be caused by a sidebar ad on the Hotmail home page.
    4. I must use Hotmail.
    5. I must use Internet Explorer for various reasons.
    I would like to not have this error box pop up all the time.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks...

    OK, here's the workaround I found:
    To fix the pop-up security error:
    1. Google "Adobe Flash Player Global Security Settings Panel". Here is the link I found:
    http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager04.htm l#117502
    2. Select "Always allow" from the settings panel.
    3. Close the browser and re-start it.
    This may not be an ideal solution, but it has been extremely painful to have to close literally dozens -- if not a hundred -- error boxes that kept popping up every day while I check my e-mail.

  • PDF error A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 10 to run slowly.

    When opening a PDF of a website using Acrobat 9.0 Professional, I am recieiving the following notification.
    A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 10 to run slowly.  If it continues to run, you computer may become unresponsive.  Do you want to abort the script?
    The error does not occur when viewing the live website from which the PDF was made.
    I recieve the same error when trying to open the PDF on other PCs using Adobe Reader 9.
    I have updated the flash player on each of the PCs as well.
    I am wondering if anyone has any ideas or insight regarding why I am recieving this notification.
    Thank you

    I'm suddenly getting the same error message, on a variety of web sites.  I'm running Windows Vista on a fairly high-end desktop, and I haven't added any new software lately.  This just started up out of nowhere.  When searching for this error message on the web, people are asking this same question all over the place, and no one has an answer.  Does Adobe ever monitor these forums?

    Hi,
    Some "movies' are actually Flash files.
    This means the Flash App will play them (possibly in a browser in some cases).
    Depending where this item is and how it is playing it may be effected by other things
    A web page can include javascript.
    Apple uses javascript here to help with creating the posting box, the Edit options, Adding pics/smilies and the like.
    Sometimes the javascript can be what is called a runaway process and gets sort of stuck in an endless loop.
    If it is a free standing item then it might be triggered by AppleScript on the Mac. (or be modified in some way)
    Again if the Script (normally written with a upper case S) is not perfect it can cause problems.

  • Receive error: "A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player to run slowly..." Firefox problem? Adobe problem? Malware?

    While browsing a variety of site, while running no movies at all, I receive the following message:"A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script?" I click "ok", error message disappears. minutes later, error message re-appears.
    I've removed Adobe Flash, cleaned registry, rebooted, all to no avail.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

  • "A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 9 to run slowly. If it continues ...

    I'm continually getting a "movie script error" in regards to
    a looping interactive. The following message: "A script in this
    movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 9 to run slowly. If it
    continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you
    wish to abort the script?" frustratingly comes up despite numerous
    startups and taking off information from the server. It seemed to
    occur slightly after uploading some content to the admin server
    which delivers the info to flash upon rebooting. However this last
    time it just cycles through a small portion frantically. How do I
    find out where the problem is and fix it?
    any clues?
    thanks in advance, Patrick

    Hi Patrick and welcome to our community
    What product are you using? This is the forum for Adobe
    RoboHelp. Your post seems to imply that you are using a Flash
    output of some type. Is it FlashHelp? Or are you possibly dealing
    with Adobe Captivate? Or maybe Flash itself?
    Cheers... Rick

  • " A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 9...

    In Safari I recently have been getting this message:
    "A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player 9 to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script? Yes_No"
    Safari and to some extent, Firefox, come to a halt.
    What is this?

    Hello,
    First, go here and make sure your Mac meets the minimum requirements;
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/productinfo/systemreqs/
    Second, make sure you have enough available drive space to access video on the net. Click once on your MacintoshHD icon on your Desktop. Then Command + I. That will prompt a Get Info window. Where it says: General click the black arrow so it points down. You will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you have a minimum of 15 to 20% free drive space. A utility that can tell you which files that are taking up the most space is: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/21149
    Also, read the following from the Apple Help/Safari Menu:
    Resetting Safari
    IMPORTANT: Resetting Safari removes all cookies, saved passwords, and saved AutoFill information, not just the ones saved during the current browsing session. Cookies saved by other applications may also be removed.
    To reset:
    Choose Safari > Reset Safari.
    Deselect any items you don’t want to reset:
    Clear history: Clears the stored addresses of webpages you’ve viewed.
    Empty the cache: Clears the temporary location on your computer where Safari saves webpages you’ve viewed. The cache helps webpages load more quickly.
    Clear the Downloads window: Clears the list of files you’ve downloaded from websites. Only the names are removed; the files themselves are still on your disk until you remove them.
    Remove all cookies: Removes cookies that websites have stored on your computer.
    Remove all website icons: Removes website icons, which are small graphics that help identify sites on the Internet. You see them in the Safari address bar and bookmarks list, and other places. These icons are stored on your computer.
    Remove saved names and passwords: Removes user names and passwords, which Safari remembers for you when the AutoFill feature is turned on.
    Remove other AutoFill form text: Removes some personal information, such as telephone numbers, used to automatically complete forms on webpages. Safari remembers this information for you when the AutoFill feature is turned on. Removing AutoFill information does not remove information from your address book.
    Clear Google searches: Clears the Google search field of recent searches, which are normally saved in a list viewed by clicking the search field’s magnifying glass icon.
    Close all Safari windows: If you don’t close all Safari windows, someone could use the Back and Forward buttons to view the webpages you’ve visited.
    Click Reset.
    Open windows are closed and a new window opens. The new window has a new history for the Back and Forward buttons and the SnapBack buttons.

  • Can't install Adobe Flash player ERROR. Please help

    I tried to download the update of Adobe Flash Player BUT every time I try to download it... Look at the screen shot. ERROR.
    Please help me I am really happy if someone here can help me.

    Hello,
    The log file indicates there are permissions issues on a couple of files and they are not being removed.  This is preventing the installation of the new version.  Please run the uninstaller, posted here Uninstall Flash Player | Windows, and post an updated FlashInstall.log file, and a screenshot of the files remaining in the /Macromed/Flash directory after running the uninstaller.  Please only run the uninstaller and do not attempt to re-install at this time.
    Thank you.

    Hello sunnyskoolof13, Below is some information on the brccmctl file you list. You must have a Brother printer of other Brother device.
    brccmctl.exe is a process from Brother Industries, Ltd.. It can be found in the location of C:\Program Files\brother\controlcenter3.
    brccmctl.exe is a potential security risk which can be modified maliciously by spyware.
    brccmctl.exe should be disabled and removed, if it was attacked and brought you brccmctl.exe error.
    Just go to the Control Panel, Programs and Features, ( if using Windows 7) If using Windows XP, go to Control Panel, Add and Remove Programs, and locate and remove this application.
    If your Brother Device stops working, you may need to reinstall the application.
    Please click the White Kudos star on the left, to say thanks.
    Please mark Accept As Solution if it solves your problem.

  • Iweb 08: adobe flash player error messages and crashing when saving

    Hi.   I switched not too long ago from an 08 Imac to a mid 2011 with Mountain Lion.    I brought the applications I could from the other computer, including Iweb 08. 
    today was the first time I tried to tweak my site with it.  I opened the old file on the new computer using this method:
    http://iwebfaq.org/site/iWeb_Transfer_Site.html
    All seemed well at first.  Then I got a slew of error messages to the effect of "Adobe® Flash® Player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation. The following local application on your computer or network: blah blah is trying to communicate with this internet-enabled loaction: blah blah blah".  
    My site is used to display my work in the video production field, so it's related to the various players/videos embedded.  
    In addition, when I tried to save after opening that first time, and any time, since, it crashes during the save.  
    Any ideas what's going on here?
    Here're two of the pages on my site that were making iweb go nuts:
    http://videoproduction.joshbass.com/Videoproduction-_ENG_Interviews.html
    http://videoproduction.joshbass.com/Videoproduction-_Commercial.html
    Thanks.

    Whether or not you use iWeb, you may be aware that things have changed. Since you're a professional, I assume the trade must have talked about it.
    I'm not a professional, but I have read about it for the past few years.
    Adobe Flash is on it's way out. Especially on Mobile devices, such as my iPad, where your movies do not display.
    Here's how I do it.
    It started with this in Flash :
    http://www.wyodor.net/_Movies/rolando/
    Then made this with the <embed> code 4 years ago :
    http://www.wyodor.net/Tutorials/ImageWidget/ClickMovie.html
    And in a similar style, made for iPad :
    http://www.wyodor.net/mfi/cultureclub/Movies.html
    Then HTML5 came along and made a sample with custom code to explain it :
    http://www.wyodor.net/_Demo/html5/HTML5Video.html
    And with code from the Interwebs :
    http://www.wyodor.net/_Demo/html5/HTML5_Zencoder.html
    http://www.wyodor.net/_Movies/sublime/
    And regarding the Adobe messages? It's not particular to your situation. It's a warning that you try to use Flash outside the protected area of a website.
    You can either ignore it, or prevent it by making separate webpages for each flash video and then display them with an iframe in the HTML Snippet. The HTML5 demos above do that.
    So the magic word is : Educate.
