Why do I keep getting message "please close the following programs to continue Internet Explorer?"

Even when Task Manager indicates that Internet Explorer 10 is not running, I keep getting this message at 50% Adobe Flash Installation: "please close the following programs to continue Internet Explorer"

Use the Task Manager's Processes tab to end all iexplore.exe instances.

Please Close The Following Program to Continue "CORE"

Please Help

To continue with the installation, you shouldn't have any application that uses Flash Player opened. Go to Task Manager (by pressing Control + Alt + Delete keys together and selecting Task Manager) and see if you have any application that uses Flash Player.
Also, just try the following:
1. Please download Flash Player from the following link. http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player- windows.html#main-pars_header
2. Restart the machine.
3. Double-click the downloaded file.
Thanks,

"Please close the following program...Safari."

Each time I try to install Adobe Flash Player a box appears stating "Please close the following programs to continue...Safari.
I have tried closing Safari and I still get this notice.

You need to actually terminate the application, not just close the window. See How do I quit Safari (or another browser/app) in OS X.

Updating InDesign "Please close the following applications to continue"

Hi! I’m trying to update InDesign through my Creative Cloud connection, but I get the following error message:
InDesign CC Update
Please close the following applications to continue:
- InDesign (Adobe InDesign CC)
Below this message are the buttons “Cancel” and “Retry”. Even though my copy of InDesign is not running, I still get this message when I click on the Retry button, and it continues to appear each time I select Retry. Clicking on Cancel has the same result: the error message will continue to appear!
Is there anything I can do to remove this message and update InDesign? On my CC Updater window, all my applications are show as being up to date, except for InDesign, which is show as “canceling”.
Thanks in advance,
Colin Hartridge

53. Re: Mac installation says Safari is open, but it is not.
hellohelloworldworldd Jul 2, 2014 9:50 AM (in response to mazion)
If anyone else is having the issue where the Flash install is asking you to close Safari when you know it's closed, try this:
1. Open activity monitor: Applications > Utilities > Activity Monitor
2. Find a process called WebkitPluginAgent and force that to quit.
3. Then retry the flash install.
The above solution fixed the problem for me in OS X 10.10.1 . You can force it to quit by clicking the X in the upper left corner of the Activity Monitor window. After selecting WebkitPluginAgent.

Why do I keep getting messages that Firefox has a serious virus and I can't bring up icon to check them.

Why do I keep getting messages from Vista saying Firefox has a serious virus? Also I can't bring up the icon to let me do the scan.

You should never respond to such messages as they are only scams to get you to buy their software.<br />
If you install that software and "let it scan" then you will most likely get infected with malware.
