Adobe Flash 10c.ocx error message?

[PixieLynn]

Well, my sister and I are REALLY getting angry at whatEVER this flash thing is.  I run my business on the road -am gone a LOT.  Tonight when I got home, I had a very important eMail letter to send.  Three other windows were open -NOTHING PERTAINING TO ADOBE!!!  All of a sudden, it wiped ALL of them out, shut them down and left me with this little number above, "Adobe Flash 10c.ocx" error message, to which crap vista windows informed me, "Internet Explorer has encourntered a problem with an add-on and needs to close."  No warning ... just the whole letter and ALL the other pages, GONE!

If I want to do something with Adobe, I'll do it, otherwise I expect it to sit quietly in the background and keep quiet!  I have enough problems with this vista "system" -WORST ever invented.  Just what vista needed, something else so it can cause more headaches!

I found this forum, and I HOPE this will be fixed VERY shortly.  Thanks for letting me say.

Thank God I have almost total recall when such a thing happens, but I really do not appreciate it happening in the middle of a message so important!

1. Download & use the flash Uninstaller from here: it

2. Reboot to clear out any left over ocx files.

3. Rescan using Secunia PSI - if there are any insecure Flash elements left what is the path to them? U should not proceed to stage 4 until all U clear any problems found.(The overview page may look a little odd because it uses Flash for the pictorials) you can download it from www.secunia.com it's a easy tool to use just follow the commands


4. Reinstall the latest Internet Explorer Flash Player from here: ( make sure you copy the link below and open internet explorer and paste it into the address bar and press enter then download the file and it should install fine.)

3A.If U are also using Firefox, Opera and other Gecko-based browsers U need this link as well: ( If you are using this browser just follow the same commands as above just copy the link below and paste it into the address bar and press enter then download the file and it shold install fine)

5. Go to add/remove & double check Adobe have not installed the useless Adobe Download Manager - if U see an entry remove it.
