The specs of my machine are as follows:
I was alerted to the need to install a new flash version a few days ago. I attempted, and failed, to achieve the install. Thereafter, I shut down all my security and firewall programs, unistalled all of my previous versions, restarted the computerr, and attempted it again. I failed again. And again. Repeatedly. I then uninstalled the 11, installed the 10.5, and found none of my websites would accept the out of date flash player. Now I have no flashplayer, and no way to aquire a new one.

4) I Click "next" and the installer begins to run, as a blue progress line crosses the window:
5) When it reaches the 7% shown (within 2 seconds) it remains there (for roughly 20 seconds). Then the window cashes, disappearing. NO error message is shown. If there was, it would be included.

The Adobe website representation:
My computer lacks the indicated file. Instead I have:
I have attempted to open all of the files in 'Contents-Resources.' No success.
Please Help. Any assistance would be very much appriciated. Ive attempted to put every aspect of the problem here as clearly as possible. I can answer any other questions in the pursuit of success.
