Question

error installing flash player

I download the installation file, have tried saving it and just opening it directly after downloading from adobe.com and filehippo.  I have verified that I am downloading for the correct version of windows and that I want to use it for Internet Explorer.  I saw some forum post semi related to my issue which recommended uninstalling all previous versions of flash player and I have done that.

My problem is that when i go to run the installation file I get an error that says it can no longer run scripts on this page.  Gives me a line #, some other stuff and this http://localhost:1919/app/_host/host.js.  I have only seen this error on websites, why would it come from an installation file and what do I need to do to get rid of it?  Flash player has never given me a problem before.  I need some things that I can do.

Computer information.  Windows XP SP3.  IE version 8 (the highest that can go on an XP computer).

    Try downloading the installer(s) from the link in http://forums.adobe.com/thread/889580

    Would it be possible for you to post a screenshot of this error?  I'd like to investigate further.

    Thanks,

    Chris

    I thought I sent a screenshot to myself via email (its not my computer) but I will see if I can have the lady re-send it to me.
