I have windows 7 64 bit, but the site always gives me the 32 bit version of flash player, when I go to check my flash version it says I have windows 7 32 bit, next to the OP system, but I have 64 bit, when I go to the download page of the flash player, on top of it it says "operation system: windows 7 64 bit" but when I press download it gives me the 32 bit version, why is that?

Flash Player is installing both 32 and 64 bit versions for you.  The Flash Player control panel will say 32 bit, but that is expected and correct.  The question is, do you use Internet Explorer 32 bit or 64 bit?  Most use 32 bit, in which case the 32 bit version of Flash Player will be used.

How do I determine what version of Internet Explorer is running?

Thanks,

Chris
