After downloading and installing Flash player several times on my computer the installation fails in spite of the message reading that it has successfully installed. As a result I am unable to view videos from my favorite photo sites. Using internet explorer on a 64 bit system.

Download the following files by right clicking and selecting "Save target as"
Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
Save ALL files to your Downloads folder - DO NOT RUN anything yet.
Reboot your system.
BEFORE opening anything else, go to your Downloads folder and run the UNINSTALLER to remove all instances of Flash Player.
Next, run the ActiveX Installer.
Once Flash Player is installed go to: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/alternates/#sp
Download BOTH files, the one on the right FIRST by right clicking and selecting "Save target as"... the other by clicking and following the steps to download the FULL ActiveX installer.
Once everything is installed, see:Enabling Flash Player in Internet Explorer and: ActiveX Filtering in Internet Explorer to make 100% sure that Flash Player is enabled and NOT being blocked by ActiveX controls.
I have a Vista Utlimate 64 bit system and it worked for me the way I described here.

Thanks Mike
I hadn't turned off active X filtering in my tools_safety. Now it's off Flash works fine
