    I don't know if this helps as I am not at all a tech wizard! BUT mine wouldn't work when I had opted not to load the toolbar offered!
    When I selected to download that too it worked fine, then I deleted the toolbar after and its all working lovely!!
    Hope that helps someone!!! :O)

    I am having the same issue... I accidentally deleted my Adobe Flash Player & went to try and install/download again, yet I keep getting an error. Network Error- Please check your internet connection and try again. I have changed/ enabled just about anything/ everything I can to try & allow the download, yet still can't get it to install. Have also searched the internet for hours/ days looking for another fix or reason to this problem, but can't locate additional information. Someone please respond & help us all out!!

    I SOLVED IT!!!!! LATEST FLASH IS INSTALLED!!!!

    Here's what I did:

    Read the information in the service note about the ridiculously sensitive download manager (DM)

    ID:kb400530

    It gives instructions about internet settings necessary for the DM to work on multiple browsers. I use IE 7. Some were really non-obvious, like windows need to have no constraints on size, position.  Most have to do with security, Active X settings.

    However even after I followed the directions, I got the same error message.

    But I'd gotten the general idea of what the DM needed, and went back to my Internet Options, and made a couple of additional changes. I'm not sure which of these was responsible for the success, but I'm resetting them afterward anyway.

    For all the settings in which they allowed Prompt or Enable, I chose ENABLE.

    I set Enable (vs. Prompt) for Download signed Active X controls (not secure)  - this prompts a security risk bar, which didn't interfere

    I also:

    Set ENABLE for Run components not signed with Authenticode

    Set ENABLE for Allow previously unused ActiveX controls to run without prompt

    Set DISABLE for Automatic prompting for ActiveX controls

    Set DISABLE for Automatice Prompting of ActiveX controls

    Set  DISABLE for Use Pop-Up Blocker

    Set ENABLE for everything in under Scripting section

    Anyway, you get the idea.  I was trying to give the poor software every break I could, and it downloaded with no problem.

    And then, the acid test.....I tried the site that had crashed because of lack of Flash 10 - and it tna perfectly....

    Take that ADOBE!!!!

    I hope something equivalent works for you.
