:confused; I have Shockwave installed and it shows in Internet Explorer Add-ons
as Shockwave Flash Object, Enabled,Active X Control, Flash 9d.ocx. The
download showed "Shockwave Player 10.1." I have downloaded and run the
installation for Flash Player. I receive a message that the "Flash Player was
installed successfully" but it does not show in Add or Remove Programs and does
not show in Explorer Add-ons. I have tried rebooting after the installation but
apparently the program is not installing. Can anyone . Could this be a
setting problem? Can someone help?

I went through the installation process and received a message that the Flash
Player was successfully installed, but the Flash Player does not work.

Received this message on September 29. I still cannot get my flash player to
work. I can't get it to enable.

This might be extremely simple (but I was having the same problem that
everyone noted and tried everything to no avail). After beating my head against
the wall, I looked at the add-ons that were being used for IE. I noticed that
some of the Adobe add-ons were disabled (specifically the one with Flash and
Active X. So I enabled them and I was inmediately able to view flash player
files. I rebooted the computer a couple of times and it still held true. Then I
decided to disable the add-ons once again and voila! - I could not use the
flash player again.
Anyways, hope this helps someone else and that it is not temporary.
By the way - I am running regular Windows XP
