Detection problem

[th0pol]

Hi.  I updated the flash player today and it stopped working.  Specifically, flash components on sites don't appear.  It seems like it's not being detected by the browser.  I am running firefox, but it also went undetected in explorer.  An explorer window pops up to say that installation is complete and I opened a new tab, went to youtube, and was told that I need to install flash.  In firefox, I can see the plugin in the add-ons manager and it says its enabled.

I have reinstalled a few times.  I tried clearing appdata.

I'm running Vista, 32 bit

I have Flash 11.6.602.168 installed

I've been looking for a fix for a few hours now.  I'm starting to feel a bit dumb.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Regarding Firefox, did you install the separate plugin (different installer from IE)?

Everything's squared.  I feel quite stupid for having had this trouble.  I managed to get it working on IE, so I realized it was a problem with firefox, not flash player.  I reinstalled firefox that's all it took.

Sorry to have bothered you with such a hairbrained problem.
