Why does Flash10e.ocx cause IE7 to crash?

An associate is having a problem when a website attempts to run Flash10e.ocx in Shockwave Flash Object.  Internet Explorer 7 is the browser being used on a computer running Windows XP Professional SP2.  I've updated to Flash Player 10.0.45.2 but the problem persisits.  I've disabled the add-on but would like to find a solution.  Can you help?

My problem is similar.  It began right after I allowed an Adobe update to run.  (Adobe Flash Player version 10.0.45.2 is recorded in my Registry.) Now every single website I try to open triggers a window (see below) and repeats many times.
It makes no difference whether I "Allow" or not.  I think it runs this window for every flash object on that website.  It is occurring while I enter this post!
It makes using the Internet MOST challenging.  Surely this is causing major problems for everyone.
I have IE8 on Windows Vista.
Here's the text from the message:
"A website wants to open web content using this program on your computer.
This program will open outside of Protected Mode. Internet Explorer's Protected Mode helps protect your computer. If you do not trust this website, do not open this program.
Name:  Adobe Flash Player
Publisher: Adobe Systems Incorporated
(Checkbox) Do not show me the warning for this program again.
buttons:  Allow         Do Not Allow"
Should I appeal to Microsoft or Adobe for a solution?  Is is possible to install the previous version?
Thanks for any wisdom.

  • Why does updating itunes cause Firefox to crash?

    My husband was attempting to update itunes so that he could add music to his ipad. He had connected his ipad to our PC and tried to download some music. However, he was told he had to update itunes. When he proceeded to access the update, we lost our internet connection. I assume Firefox crashed. He was able to restore the connection, but it took quite a lot of effort. How could we have prevented the crash and how could we have restored it more quickly? itunes seems to play havoc with our PC every time we have to make an adjustment. Why is this?
    Thank you for your help.

    Firefox isn't your internet connection, it sounds like something happened in itunes. You can go to apple.com/itunes and just download and re-install itunes, but this isn't a Firefox issue.

  • Why Does 3D Reposse cause crashes and work so slow?

    Why Does 3D Reposse cause crashes and work so slow?   I get the pinwheel of death when I use this feature.  It works at a snails pace.  I liked the 3D Type effects in iIllustrator.  Why couldn't Adobe have added all the Reposse features to Illustrator instead of craming all these new features into Photoshop?
    They're worthless if the program needs an hour to process every selection.

    What are your OS specs, your Video Card and your Preferences > Performance settings?
    Why Does 3D Reposse cause crashes and work so slow?
    My guess would be because it has to create a whole bunch of polygons and your computer-set-up may be insufficient for the task.

  • Why does Final Cut cause a hard system crash after upgrading computer's memory?

    2x2.8 gHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon MacPro that orginally came with 2gBs of memory. We upgraded to 4gBs of memory by adding 2 1gB ram chips. Ever since, Final Cut Pro has been causing hard system crashes. Does anybody have an idea why this is happening?

    Installing memory is very specific
    the correct type of DIMMs must be installed in the correct slots dependant on the type of processor fitted
    install exactly as per the Mac Pro guidelines here:
    Mac Pro Memory DIMM Instalation
    you will have to reload the web page a few times after the page warning to down load correctly (command R)
    if it is per the instructions and your having trouble, the DIMMs are most likely faulty

  • Why does my N73 cause PC Suite to Crash

    Installed latest firmware upgrade for N73 (forget number - but it is the latest via Nokia Software Updater for my Orange UK phone, and probably for any). Phone works fine.
    Installed latest PC Suite (6.85.12.0)
    When phone is connected by USB or by Bluetooth - this causes PCSuite to crash ('PCSuite.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close') In fact I can continue working with it, and it works fine, if I ignore the message which remains 'on top' on my screen. But it sure is irritating.
    Older version of PCSuite does not crash. I tried by reinstalling it. All OK.
    New version of PCSuite does not crash if I don't connect the phone. But once the phone is connected - after anything from 5 secs to 30 secs, it crashes.
    So... Incompatibility between the N73 and PCSuite? Or some special glitch in my particular phone? Or on my laptop (Win XP Pro SP2)?
    Some guru cruising around has any ideas?

    Good to know I'm not alone with this particular problem, and that it probably isn't my particular phone. Curiously, when I first installed the new version of PCSuite - it told me that I needed to install some kind of plugin for PCSuite onto my phone. No idea what, and cannot imagine. At that point, though, I do not think PCSuite was crashing, just giving the strange message.
    However, my phone, after its firmware upgrade did keep trying to download something mysterious, and was giving me a message about incompatible software. I solved that problem by deleting a couple of unknown apps (just alphanumeric gobbledegook) found through references on these forums. I wish I could remember the precise messages I was receiving. Phone itself now works fine, however - and no more strange messages, either from the phone or from PCSuite - just the PCSuite alleged crash. Uninstalling and reinstalling PCSuite, and its related apps (eg connectivity wotsit, cable driver wotsit) does not help.
    Sounds like if we could just rename or bump up some version number reference within the PCSuite program and its related installs, we might solve the problem.
    By the way - does anyone know where you can get an up to date PCSuite Cleaner. Seems to have disappeared from the Nokia site?Message Edited by ozerdavid on 07-Dec-200711:39 AM

  • Why does my Adobe Flash Player keep crashing? I have taken the steps that I received in the "Learn More" section of the crash but it still crashes.

    I open an application that requires Flash Player but it always crashes. I can use it for maybe five minutes but after that it keeps on crashing, I have the latest version of Flash Player as the article on "Learn More" has said to but that didn't help. Can anyone help me?

  • Why does iBooks go suddenly black or crash On my iPad mini

    why does my ibooks app turn to black with white writing or crash on my iPad mini with ios8

    Me too, ipad mini can't get YouTube app to function via the official app and the same error message," ...tap to retry", but to no avail. The app launches but it will not allow me to sign in. The drop arrow just tilts up and down and ...nothing. I can still access YouTube through Safari browser but strange, I can't find a solution to the app not opening or being able to sign in on either ipad mini or phone even though they are up to date apps.

  • Why does system exec cause a memory leak to occur?

    Sorry if this has been posted before, but I can't quite figure out why this VI is causing a gigantic memory leak (losing nearly 500K of memory a second). It's a simple system exec call, and I even trivialized everything in order to try and discover the problem.
    Does anyone see a huge problem here? I've tried calling up taskkill afterward as well, though that seemed to make little difference.
    If you don't trust my trivial program (and you probably shouldn't), I've also included the source files for the program - it's a one-line C++ program that returns immediately.
    Any insight is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Try putting a wait - even a 0 second wait - in your loop and see if it makes a difference.  Without a wait, LabVIEW will try to run that loop as fast as possible, possibly so fast that it never yields time to free resources.

  • Why does Adobe Elements 4.0 suddenly crash about the time Apple has a security update?

    Why does Adobe Elements 4.0 suddenly start crashing about the time Apple has a security update?

    An ADOBE FORUM "Community Professional" commented:
    "Well, I'm not sure any of this is going to work, but go to your username>library>preferences and delete:
    com.adobe.Photoshop.Elements.plist
    The PSE 4 Paths and Settings folders (can't remember whether they're called Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0 Paths or something different, but you want folders with Paths and Elements 4 in their names--you should be able to figure out which they are)
    Opera preferences (if you have it)
    Repair permissions and try again.
    If it still quits, go to the PSE 4 folder in applications and delete the Adobe TWAIN driver from the plug-ins folder (note that you may have trouble with Epson scanners in PSE after doing this).
    However, PSE 4 is pretty darned old and it's less compatible with every new OS X update, so what I've suggested may work and may not. FWIW, you probably will not be able to reinstall the program if you ever need to do so--installed versions of PSE 4 keep working in 10.6, but the installer does not."
    Hope this helps
