Then once you have done that then follow my directions. Thats the only thing that I can think of that I did because I do not have the problem at all anymore.

If you have a flash.ocx file or a Flash Player folder, you have Flash installed.' This worked for me - I deleated the file and any thing else to do with Macromedia Flash and I've had no more popups. Thanks to Welshjim.

If you dont want to install flash you should block the imaging of them on your web browser via the firewall or your browser options depending on what you use.

Everytime i leave my computer for a few minutes, I get a pop-up error message that reads "Could not find the Macromedia Flash". I've done google searches to find a solution but nothing!! Thanks in advance!! rmklotz4, Jan 15, 2007 #1 Sponsor bonk Banned Joined: Sep 8, 2005 Messages: 11,098 Try a different screen Saver bonk, Jan 15, 2007 #2 rmklotz4 Thread Starter Joined: Jan 9, 2007 Messages: 61 I have had the same screen saver for a few years and never had this trouble. It seemed to start when i installed a new version of adobe flash player. rmklotz4, Jan 15, 2007 #3 bonk Banned Joined: Sep 8, 2005 Messages: 11,098 Can you try rolling back to before you installed the new version of adobe flash player....and that would tell you for sure if it was it. bonk, Jan 15, 2007 #4 rmklotz4 Thread Starter Joined: Jan 9, 2007 Messages: 61 i will give that a try...I was thinking that it might have soemthing to do with the name being changed from Macromedia Flash PLayer to Adobe Flash PLayer. Is my computer possibly looking for something called Macromedia when it should be looking for Adobe? rmklotz4, Jan 15, 2007 #5 bonk Banned Joined: Sep 8, 2005 Messages: 11,098 It's probably because that's a old screen saver and has not been updated to run in the new player. bonk, Jan 15, 2007 #6 rmklotz4 Thread Starter Joined: Jan 9, 2007 Messages: 61 it was actually a screensaver i downloaded from HBO.com...Entourage Screensaver. I uninstalled it and then reinstalled it from the web site...well see if that helps rmklotz4, Jan 15, 2007 #7 rmklotz4 Thread Starter Joined: Jan 9, 2007 Messages: 61 i think that did the trick...thanks bonk!!! rmklotz4, Jan 15, 2007 #8 lbroer Joined: May 11, 2007 Messages: 4 I did a system restore point to an earlier date and that took care of the problem. lbroer, May 11, 2007 #9 Phelyx Joined: May 9, 2007 Messages: 20 Yah when Adobe bought Macromedia they made a few quarky changes to the way Flash works that can cause a few conflicts. I'm certain the reinstall fixed your problem.
