I found another post on the Microsoft forum that gave the following advice
- From the command promp
- enter command "taskkil /F /IM iexplore.exe"
- was then able to get Flash player to install
- went to step 3 of the installation
- clicked on Finish
- it sent me to sell me another Adobe product
I then tried to run it but was told "NOT INSTALLED"
Went to start 'all programs' but it wasn't listed
Went to Conrol Panel/Programs (To uninstall)
Both Adobe reader and Flash player are listed (In fact do an uninstall of Flash and it runs to completion)
Where the heck did it get installed and why can't anyone find it????
