I have upgraded to windows 7 from vista. I have downloaded flash player. However in both Firefox 3 and Internet Explorer 8 I am requested to download flash player when it is required. I have followed the adobe instructions to remove and reload, change the security levels, remove the firewall. The files are found in "windows/system32/macromed/flash". What do I need to do to make flash player work?

I have managed to get flash player working in Mozilla Firefox but not in IE8!

Many sites confuse Flash Player and Shockwave Player, so they ask you to install Flash Player, when in fact they mean Shockwave Player.

Try installing Shockwave Player, then go and check if the two players work correctly: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/

P.S. Flash Player works very nicely on my Windows 7.
