I am unable to download Flash. It says there is a virus and has been deleted. I have tried to follow the help instructions but to o avail. What should I do?

Your antivirus is giving a "false positive". This is a direct result of a faulty definitions file. Disable it (completely) while you download and install. And it wouldn't hurt to look into a better A/V program. Eventually this one will delete something you really need because their developers can't or won't keep up with the rest of the computing world.

And were you able to download the installer?
If not, it may be malware preventing the download.
