Vista 64

IE8

Firefox 3.6.12

Chrome 8.0.552.215

Flash Player 0,1,102,64

Ever since I updated my flashplayer I cant stream my live blog or watch others. Mine as well as other blog open fine but after 10 seconds to 1 minute it freezes. I went to the adobe about page n yes I see the turning FP emblem. Tried to enable n unable hardware in flash settings, uninstall flash completely along with all browsers and clean install all the above. Updated my graphic card drivers along with Manycams n Eyetoy drivers. Nothing Ive done has stop the live broadcasts from freezing. The site I use to blog is " http://vichatter.net/videochat.php ", the strange thing is if I go to other blog sites like BlogTV n JustinTV the live streams work fine. It only freezes on the site I use to blog. All my security settings are set to medium and all add ons except shockwave and java are disabled in IE. Ive tried going back to a older version of flash but it still freezes now. No matter which browser I use it freezes. Nothing Ive tried to do has gotten me back to being able to go live or watch others. Is there something Im missing???

    TMatus, i too have this problem with vichatter. All of the chats i go into freeze after a few seconds. What is the version i need to install into IE?   i am not a computer person so it would be helpful if someone can help me with this. It seems confusing to me. I need to install the version of flashplayer that vichatter is using  ( Version 10.0.0 )  into my IE. Can someone post a link to this version?   Thanks

    Hi, you said: All my security settings are set to medium and all add ons except shockwave and java are disabled in IE. Ive tried going back to a older version of flash but it still freezes now. No matter which browser I use it freezes. Nothing Ive tried to do has gotten me back to being able to go live or watch others. Is there something Im missing???

    You want the Shockwave Flash Object in your IE add ons ENABLED. Also if you are using FF(Firefox), look in the plugins for the Shockwave Flash (SWF) and make sure it is Enabled. Both of these add ons are necessary for Flash Player to work properly.

    You want all Java Enabled except the 2 SSV Helper.

    Going back to an old version of FP is not a good idea, unless perhaps the previous one if necessary. Best to find out what the problem is.

    I would also suggest keeping the hardware acceleration Off until you find out what is causing your problem.

    Make sure that in your IE addons that you are speaking of Shockwave Flash Object and not just Shockwave Flash.

    Let me know.

    Thanks,

    Hello

    Shockwave and Java IS Enabled, thats what "all BUT shockwave and Java is DISABLED" means. Ive tried it both ways with hardware accelleration on and off it doesnt matter I still freeze if I try to broadcast or try to watch someone else as well as the same thing in any of the 3 browsers Ive list. In IE the plug in is called Shockwave Flash Object and in Firefox the add on is called Shockwave Flash and yes both are enabled.

    Hi, thanks. I read "disabled" as enabled, sorry. From what I can tell from all that you have done, then I would have to conclude that the websites that you are having a problem with may not have updated yet. I would contact the websites and see if they are supporting the latest version of Flash Player. If not, then you may want to Uninstall and Re-Install the previous version.

    That would be my suggestion under these conditions.

    Thanks,
