Your flash is NOT up to date, your system is showing Shockwave Flash 10.0 r32 and the current flash is 11.1.102.55 or as would be reported here 11.1 r102

Install the current Flash Player

  1. install Flash from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ but before you install, uncheck the Security Scan Plus. It has nothing to do with Flash Player and such additional baggage during installation is known as crapware. Only install the Flash Player.
  2. If the installation does not start use "Ctrl+J" to find the downloaded install and run it.
  3. When the install actually begins in an installation window, bring Firefox down with "Alt+F" (File) > Exit.
  4. If the installation does not proceed, then bring up the Windows Task Manager ("Ctrl+Alt+Del"), click on the "Processes" tab of the WTM and look for firefox.exe and plugins-container.exe and terminate if running.
  5. Check all of your Firefox plug-ins at http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/
  6. Restart windows, then bring up Firefox
  7. Check your Flash installation at http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ to show that you have the latest Flash installed. (don't press the play now button).
