Flash Player not functioning

[Puppy2013]

I have a laptop, Windows 7 , running IE 9.0. I have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player installed, but it does not seem to be working. When I try to view video sites like USATODAY, the video does not work - or at least, I cant see anything. When i go to check Version of Flash Player installed, it does not show the movie, instead its just a blank square, or no square actually. But I know that Adobe Flash Player is installed. I understand that IE doesnt need plug-ins and the like. Any suggestions ?
