Hi Tim and anybody else who can help, I am having immense difficulty installing flash. Is the installer really buggy or something? I'm at the point where I've downloaded the disk image. I open the installer app. I'm warned about this and I continue. I'm asked for my computer username and password which I type in and press enter. I get a window called adobe flash player installer. Next to this is an installer helper html area which is empty. That's all. There's a close button and nothing else, and nothing seems to be installing. I've tried going through system prefs again to re download it. I hit the download link and nothing downloads. Any ideas?
