    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/              You may want to go to this link and follow the instructions. You said you downloaded it, did you install it? This link has all of the information you need.

    Ok, that's good. If you see Flash Player 10 in the add/delete then it's installed. You wouldn't see it on your desktop Flash Player 10 is an

    Active X browser plug in. The next thing you need to do, go to Tools>manage add ons, find Shockwave Flash, see if under File is says

    Flash 10c.ocs, hi-light Shockwave Flash and Update it.  I am assuming you are using IE 8. After you update be sure to close the windows and browser and REBOOT.

    If you are still unsure whether F.P. 10 is installed, go to www.adobe.com/software/flash/about  and Adobe will tell you.
