Flash Player on ESPN

I have done just about everything to make sure I have the latest adobe flash player software and that it is turned on. While the adobe support page says I have the latest update and that it is functioning, every time I go to do an ESPN Fantasy Football Draft, it will not let me run the draft application because "I need adobe flash player 9.0 or higher to run the function." I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it multiple times and it still does not work and I have no idea what to do to fix the problem.

    If no errors were returned during installation then it's correctly installed.

    Most likely the browser has Flash disabled by default and you need to enable it for this site or ESPN is not properly detecting Flash based on resent changes by most browser companies to disable Flash by default (called click-to-play).

    What operating system and browser (including version for both) is this on?

    What is the exact link to the (publicly accessible) ESPN content that is not working?
