I have tried to download Adobe Flash serveral times and I can't ever get passed Step 2.

I looked in the Control Panel under Programs and it is listed there to delete.  But when I actually try to find it in the Programs list, it isn't there.  HELP!

Flash Player ISN'T a program. It's a part of another program, called a "plug-in". It CAN'T run without a browser being open and Flash content in an open webpage. THAT'S why you'll never see it in your start menu, or in your Program Files folders.

It's in C/Windows/System32/Macromed/Flash 

and  C/Windows/SysWOW64/Macromed/Flash

If the files are there... it's installed.

What do you need the program for - to play local SWF files?  If so, you need to download the standalone player (Projector) from http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html

Note that the download is the player, not an installer, so you will need to make the .swf file association manually.
