Flash Player won't "install?"

OK So I have run and rerun and rerun the uninstaller. I reboot each time. I then try to install the flash player. no go. I have tried to install an earlier version. when I download the , say version 8 from the website you recommended and open it, I get folders like r36, r24, r39 etc. So I click on one of these and it opens with a text folder, and several exe folders. So I click on say r39, and it opens a flash exe and I click on it and it shows a "install" but nothing is installed. Nothing. I go to the 'verify you have player installed' web site and nothing is installed. I cannot get this flash installed. Something is blocking it. I don't know what else to try. BTY I have gone through this with ca, my anti virus, firewall provider and they found nothing. We tried shutting down both anti virus and firewall and downloading, nothing. still won't install. I truly don't know if data is being downloaded and the install is not working or if when it downloads, there is nothing, no data, in the download.

 

I've had issues with this using Avant browser. I had to unistall it from the add/remove programs, and reinstall it. I think adobe has a troubleshoot you may want to try. I found the link to this on the intall page.

Try different browsers too.

 

I've had this prob off and on for quite awhile. I went to Adobe Flash site and got their uninstall.exe and when it now occurs, I run the uninstall, followed by reboot, then go to Adobe flash and reinstall~~works everytime~

 

I have done the uninstall and reinstall many many times using the Adobe web site as well as numerous other web sites. None of them work. I have rebooted each time.

 

Have you tried different browsers? Are your browswers up to date?

 

Yes I tried IE and firefox. Both are up to date.
