Internet Explorer closing when downloading Flashplayer 10

I have lost all facility on my computer to play clips from webpages on my pc.
I have tried to download adobe flashplayer 10.0.42.34 and each time the webpage closes with the message 'A malfunctioning or malicious add-on has caused internet explorer to close this web page'.
I am using IE8 on a x86 based pc. My operating system is Windows XP Professional version 5.1.2600 service pack 3 build 2600.
All I want to do is be able to have the facility back again to allow my son to use the Club Penguin website.
My pc is a dell dimension running on a 32bit version of windows.
I have read various details about the problems that people are having with this download and it has confused me, Can anyone help?

I have downloaded the Active X Installer and have loaded the Adobe Flash Player 10 Active X (According to what it tells me in the loaded programs folder.)
When I downloaded the Installer the following message came up;
Error opening file for writing
C:\WINDOWS\System32\Macromed\Flash\FlashUtil10d.exe
Click Abort to stop the installation or,Ignore to skip the file.
Retry did not work so I chose Ignore.
It then said that Adobe Set Up was complete.
How can I check that Flashplayer is now working ok?
When I open the Adobe.com webpage I get a message that says,
Assert in LSP
9_socket_data.Lookup(s) == 0
Capture\lsp\nolsp\wsp_patches.cpp:1273
Abort Retry Ignore
What does this mean?
Is my computer as safe as it was before loading the Installer?

You may have to set another browser temporarily as the default browser to make Firefox "redo" the default browser settings.

You need to ask Apple for assistance with getting back into your old ID. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to resolve this issue through the Account Security team, fill out and submit this form.

I am still having the same problem. I did what you said to do, but it didn't help. I cleared all of firefox's cache and still doesn't work.

I have not found a way for the email hypertext to go to the FaceBook App, but I no longer click on the hypertext as I know whatever information or posting it is directing me to in FaceBook will show up when I open my FaceBook App. I also have noticed that many pop-ups on the Browser don't actually know if you already have the software they are promoting.

Can Internet Explorer (IE) be downloaded to and used on the late 2008 model of iMac running OS X 1.9.5?

Can Internet Explorer (IE) be downloaded to and used on the late 2008 model of iMac running OS X 1.9.5? If yes, where can it be downloaded from?

Only if you run Windows. IE does not work on a Mac without Windows.
Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows 7 or Windows 8. Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows. The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris. It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. A more recent comparison of Parallels, VM Fusion, and Virtual Box is found at Virtualization Benchmarks- Parallels 10 vs. Fusion 7 vs. VirtualBox. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard and later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

When I try to install Adobe Update, it tells me to close Internet Explorer. When I try to close it, I can't get it to close. Now what?

I'd recommend going to your task manager and looking for the Internet explorer task (iexplorer.exe). Once found, right click and end task. You might have to do this for multiple entries, depending on how many instances of explorer are running.
Thanks,

When downloading a large PDF file, firefox stops after some of file and hangs up. Only way out is to close browser or power down. Internet explorer will complete download of same PDF file.

For example, go to irs.gov and try to download 1040 instructions as a PDF file. Firefox hangs up after part of the file is downloaded, but will not complete the download. The only way out is to close the browser (Firefox). Sometimes the only way out is to power down computer and reboot. I'm running Windows XP Professional. My computer has plenty of memory and disc space, so that is not the problem. When I use Internet Explorer (UGH!) it takes a while, but the very same pdf file will completely download.

Why does internet explorer close when i try to download itunes?

i just want to download i tunes to my windows 7 PC i have tried chrome and internet explorer, ive done multiple troubleshooting exercises and absolutly nothing is working. please help!

Yes, I would use the import utility built into Windows to import the photos. The crash for Explorer would be in the Windows log file, but it should have immediately restarted. Using Explorer to get photos out of the iPhone is not usually the best way to do it, as you have the opportunity to mess up file structure and can corrupt photo files.

Installed Internet Explorer 11 and now flashplayer wont work or be recognized by IE 11

I
     I received a Microsoft update foir my pc with the new Internet Explorer 11 on the update. I downloaded it and installed it and now when I try to annotate my financial charts on Stockcharts.com I cant, I get a message that this requires flashplayer and to download flashplayer. Prior to installing IE 11 i had IE 10 and Windows 7 and had adobe flashplayer installed on my computor. I had no problems with annotating financial charts on Stockcharts.com. Now whe I try to annotate a chart I get a message that this requires flashplayer and I should download flashplayer.
     I uninstalled flashplayer from my computor and downloaded the lastest version 11.9 etc and the problem persists. cansto annotate any charts and get a message to dlownload flashplayer. I dont think IE 11 is recognizing flashplayer now. I also have google chrome installed on my pc and with that I can annotate the stochcharts financial charts.
       I would appreciate some help in resolving this problem.
                                      Sincerely,

In IE 10 and IE 11 and perhaps even earlier, Microsoft installed ACTIVE X FILTERING in the browser. I believe that Active X filters out certain TYPES of content. The video clips offered by certain sites like ABC.com are blocked as potentially harmful. YouTube will work fine as will many other sites. When IE blocks their content, sites like ABC.com misinterpret the blockage as you not having Flash Player installed. ABC.com then notifies you that you must have Flash Player installed to play the video and offers you a way to install it. You can turn off ACTIVE X FILTERING on the tools menu of IE but that will make you vulnerable to the malicious content ACTIVE X FILTERING was designed to prevent. Fortunately there is another solution.
In the ADDRESS box in the top left corner of your browser ( where http://forums.adobe.com or the address of your current web site appears ) there is a clockwise circular arrow that will REFRESH your current web page. Immediately to the left of the REFRESH arrow is a small circle with a diagonal line thru it ( the universal symbol for negation as in the traffic sign for NO LEFT TURN ). If you left click that small circle, a box will drop down. In the box will be a button that offers you the ability to TURN OFF ACTIVE X FILTERING. Click on the button and you will turn off the filtering for this one visit and on only this web site. Once you TURN OFF ACTIVE X FILTERING, the video content will play just fine.

Hello
I am using the IE 8 32 bit browser...i go to get.adobe.com/flashplayer to get the new version...I have uninstalled the previous version first. when i go to download the yellow bar that says AGREE AND DOWNLOAD will not launch the download...I have tried several methods...It works just fine with Mozilla but I need it to work with IE for PLAY ON .....I worked with Microsoft they have no clue and PLAY ON passes the buck...

Where did you find such a thing...? Most likely it was
download the offline ActiveX installer http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_play er_ax.exe and save it to disk;
close all Internet Explorer windows, then run the downloaded installer.
Did the installer complete?
Can you see the Flash animation at http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ ?
im sure that is what it was...i found it on the internet and a google search for IE8 wont download flash....
the installer does complete though when i went to the http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ link
but IE8 does not show any flash at all....it wont let it work...i can see the newest version is installed..no flash
im using IE8 32 bit

Internet Explorer Issue when ITunes is open

I just installed ITunes and have already downloaded some cds. The problem is, Internet Explorer more or less becomes inactive after I open ITunes. If I open Internet Explorer first, it works fine. Once I open ITunes though, the internet more or less stops working. If I open ITunes first, Internet Explorer never loads. It's not giving me an error message or anything and the page just becomes blank. It's showing as if it is connecting to the website though. Any ideas? I will cry if I can't surf the web while importing all 200 disc I have. Thanks!
Windows XP

I have this issue since I started using iTunes last year, I keep updating the software but that hasn't helped. Various mswindows systems (2000 + XP, laptops and desktops) with and without being introduced to an iPod.
The basic scenario is that when iTunes is running, at some point the system becomes unresponsive - the windows explorer (complete UI), Lotus Notes, Firefox... it is almost like iTunes is holding a lock on a resource that the others need to redraw their screens.
The only fix I've found is to close iTunes, praying that when I restart it it'll work.
Any suggestions on things to try? Ones like "get the company to switch to a Mac" aren't helpful

Why am I getting an error message from Apple Support saying that Jive no longer supports Internet Explorer 6 when I'm running FF 31.0?

When I try to access Apple Support or discussions, I get the following error message:
Attention, Internet Explorer 6 User
Announcement: Jive has discontinued support for Internet Explorer 6.
In order to provide the best platform for continued innovation, Jive no longer supports Internet Explorer 6.
Jive will not function with this version of Internet Explorer. Please consider upgrading to Internet Explorer 7, 8, or 9, or trying another browser such as Firefox, Safari, or Google Chrome.
(Please remember to honor your company's IT policies before installing new software!)
I'm not using IE6 — I'm on an Intel Mac Pro!! What is going on?

hello, the useragent of your browser is correctly identifying it as firefox 31. you'll probably have to approach apple's support to find out if they have a bug on their side or are displaying this message to all its users...

Internet Explorer freezes when accessing sites using Flash

I am using Windows 7 64-bit, Internet Explorer 8 32-bit and Flash Player 10.1.r102.64. Also Norton Internet Security 2010.
I am having multiple problems that seem to have arisen more or less simultaneously, I don't know if they're connected or even if I've caused some while trying to fix others.
My difficulty with Flash Player is that Internet Explorer seems to freeze whenever attempting to open a web page that uses Flash, I then get the error message "Adobe Flash Player Installer/Uninstaller 10.1 r102 has stopped working."
Additionally, I find I am unable to install some Software, specifically Chrome, Firefox and CCleaner - the installer seems to run, but then nothing happens. Also my attempts at using System Restore have either failed or made matters worse. Most recently when I open Internet Explorer I get the error message "ButtonMonitor has stopped working."
I would be most grateful for any insight into how to fix my Flash-related problem, or into the possible relation my difficulties may have to one another.
Thank You, Ray Sim

Thanks for responding. I'm really getting the impression I'll be better off without Norton. My virus and firewall protection consist of the Norton and whatever is intrinsic to Windows 7. I'm afraid I didn't recognize all the sets of initials you used, so we'll see how I did.
In C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash I found:
Flash10l.ocx
FlashInstall
FlashUtil10l_ActiveX.dll
FlashUtil10l_ActiveX
Install
I don't know what an NPSWF file is, but I didn't see anything I recognized as one. The only file that seems to have version information is FlashUtil10l_ActiveX which is 10.1.102.64
In Internet Explorer I found ShockwaveFlashObject version 10.1.102.64 listed as "enabled" under both "All add-ons" and "Run without permission"
Thanks again
Ray
