I don't get this at all. Any other time I never had issues, and I am not doing anything different.

What do you have in the plugins bit? Is Flash in there?

So apparently I have it, yet I can't watch any video on break.com it keeps telling me to go get flash.

Had the same problem last week, I disabled Adobe DLM as I was getting the same problem. Shockwave Flash does not appear in my Add-ons list but Flash is still working as I can view YouTube videos etc.

How about in your programs list? Have you tried removing all things flash related?

Dane
It shows up there.
Iakobos
What if you remove it all from there, remove everything you can from firefox and then try installing again.

I would advise against using the Adobe Download Manager, it sucks. Just use the standalone installers :\

Where can I get the standalone installers? I hate the download manager as well.

The standalone installer is generally kept at this location and has been for quite a while.

Current Flash Player

Same link as Ridlas provided smile.gif
