I am using Vista and cannot download Adobe Flash Player 10. I need to use it with Mozilla Firefox 3. I have read the download instructions at get.adobe.com. The download doesn't start automatically, so I click the provided link, as instructed. Apparently, I am supposed to be given the option to "run" or "save" and then click "run." However, I am only given the option to "save" or "cancel." I choose "save." Then, another box opens up and I click on "install_flash_player.exe" I then get a message that this is an executable file which may contain viruses. I choose "ok" and "continue." Finally, I get a message saying that Firefox must be closed before Adobe Flash Player plugin can be installed. I close Firefox and all other programs, yet this message continues to be displayed.

I have Flash Player on my IE 7 browser, but need Firefox for work. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

Are you trying to use the newer version, with the bug fixes?

Also try turning off yur AV to install it. Some AVs, such as AVG, give false positives. As long as you downloaded Flash from a reputable source, it should be clean.

Thanks for the suggestion! Will I need to remove Flash Player from my IE 7 browser before installing it into Firefox?

Get the uninstaller. Then use the Flash 10 Installer.
