Since May 14, 2005 I have tried many many times to update Adobe Flash   
   Player and failed each time, so I thought I'd ask if anyone else is   
   experiencing the same problem I've having with my XP box.   
      
   I use Firefox with NoScript.   
      
   After several failures I also tried using IE8 and experienced failure   
   there too when I was updating Flash Player.   
      
   After unchecking the McAfee box while using FF to download the small   
   install file, and seeing the download finish, I go to the directory   
   the file is in and right click on it to RunAs... as a Administrator,   
   and see the Adobe Flash Player Installer window open.   
      
   When the Adobe "Flash Player: downloading" time line gets to +/- 44%   
   and "IT" then says "the installation has failed".   
      
   The version of Flash on this pc that I'm trying to get is 17 ? ? 188 .   
      
   At first I thought it was the Firewall Software that I use causing the   
   troubles, because everytime it asked to OK Adobe Download Manager I   
   was clicking the Yes button but I didn't check the checkbox to keep the   
   setting permanent.   
      
   My Firewall is FortKnox.   
   I have used it for a long time but now I get messages saying I should   
   Register it, I went to that page and saw it wanted me to now become a   
   paying user of the software.   
      
   If that is causing the problem with Flash Player not updating I will   
   start using one of the various FREE Firewalls that I can download.   
      
   For the past several days I've checked that checkbox and the same thing   
   shows up that the installation has failed.   
      
   Am I alone?    Thanks In Adbvance!
