I keep trying to downlaod the newest version of flash but when i click to install I get a popup that says "can't create a temporary file. maybe your hard disk is full".  I have plenty of space on my hard disk though. Any ideas what the issue is?

    Try using the offline ActiveX installer http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe (save it to disk). Close all browser windows, re-run the previously downloaded uninstaller, then the installer.

    Did that work?

    Download the appropriate FP uninstaller from http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_14157; save it to disk, close all browser windows, and run it. Try the installation again.

    If you still have problems, don't forget to tell us your operating system and browser.

    I did what you suggested and the same thing pops up. I have Vista home premium and internet explorer.
