Hi,
Try uninstalling / reinstalling Flash Player. Use the uninstaller at
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_14157
Flash player download:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/

Hope this helps,

I have the exact same problem. Here is what my symptoms are:

- Any site that tries to detect if flash is installed fail (IE I get the
install flash error)
- When I go to the flash install site it instantly says flash player is
installed
- Any sites that dont check if flash is present and just display a swf work
fine.

- I have tried uninstalling flash 9 using the uninstaller from Adobe then
reinstalling it again - same thing happens

- Not too sure if its related or not but flashget's right click >> download
using FlashGet feature no longer works in IE7 -- It worked fine in the betas

this is really annoying - any ideas on how to fix would me much appreciated

thanks

I have found this to work for me also. One thing you need to keep in mind. If
you use the vista disk cleanup program to clean your C: Drive, it will remove
some file that will make Flash Player not work again. Then you will have to
do this process all over again to get Flash Player to work. Maybe Microsoft
or Adobe will find a solution.

In another link in this forum I found the following solution.  It worked for
me.

"go to http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html

and then click on Download the Windows Flash Player 9 ActiveX control
content debugger (for IE) (EXE, 1.18 MB)

good luck

yes this does the trick for me too.. but the thing i don't understand is y
the need for a extra debugger if flsh player is already installed.. if this
is essential then y didn't adobe prebundle this with the flash player itself

I did this as well and it worked fine for a few hours and now its right back
to the same issue. I think that I am going to get Firefox until MS fixes this.

This worked like a charm for me. I wasn't getting errors, just some instances
where the flash content wasn't showing up.

Thanks ocpsduke!

I use vista 64 bit and there is no way that I could find to rectify "flash
player required for this web site", most annoying and after a whole lot of
searching I HAVE FOUND A SOLUTION  so hear it is:-
A utility that configers IE7 to look like IE6 and with that all the plug
in's of IE6 such as a Flash Player it is called "USER AGENT STRING UTILITY"
and hear is the web address,
"www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9517dbc-3c0d-47fe-bd04-fad82a9aac9f"
See how that works,
Good luck.

I tried this but Vista will not allow me to execute the download. I click on
allow but it just keeps popping up again. What now. As of now Vista is not
regonizing any Flash Player.

I have just had issues after a recent update, and I could not get Flash to be
recognised.

Solutions ended up being:-

Right click on IE and select Run as Administrator. If you are able to view
Flash content when running IE as admin, try the following:  

Steps to Disable UAC (User Access Control) on Windows Vista

Open Control Panels
Select User Accounts
Disable UAC
Prompted to Reboot machine
Test Flash content running IE
