Global Storage Settings Issue

Well, I'm stumped...

I have the newest flash player installed, however I can't use several applications because I'm unable to check the "Allow third-party Flash content to store data on your computer" box. I can move the slider to increase the cache size, but when I switch tabs it resets. The arrow changes to a hand when I mouse over the box, but when I click it does nothing.

I'm using Internet Explorer on Windows 7 x64.

Thanks!
