update security settings for adobe flash player

[Guest]

I have windows 7, 64bit, adobe flash player 11. 

Can't play You Tube videos...message say need to update flash player.

Went to adobe site....tried to download latest version 11.8, and message says I need to update security settings to allow.

I'm a beginner...where and how to update these settings.

Download the Adobe Flash Player installer directly by right clicking one of the following links.

Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)

Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

Save the installer - DO NOT run it yet.

Reboot your system.

BEFORE you open anything else, locate and run the installer you downloaded.
