Since IE 10, Microsoft has embedded the Flash Player for Windows 8. If they left it out, now would be a great time to finally free yourself from the pitiful excuse for a browser that Internet Exploder is.
Firefox uses a Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers) that ISN'T restricted by 20-year-old ActiveX technology, it's faster than IE, and infinitely more customizable, with plugins to block ads and popups (that DON'T work with IE).

As to 8.1 and IE11, I was conned (or rather my daughter was) into installing the 8.1 preview this summer, and it renedered EVERYTHING on my laptop (including my AVG antivirus) "incompatible". I had to uninstall it, and reload WIn 8. I won't be putting 8.1 back on till 2015 at the very least. Maybe (just maybe) those jackwagons in Redmond will have it "ready for public consumption" by then, but I'm not holding my breath. Same goes for IE 11.

Make sure that add-on is enabled, and that ActiveX Filtering is disabled.

I spent hours on this one and I fixed it by uninstalling KB3001237 and then reinstalling it standalone from step 3 in Flash Player Issues | Windows 8
