I'm a bit worried to try a system restore as I haven't done before! Completely ruined our plans for later!:crying2: I've uninstalled Adobe flash player and re installed it but it still won't let me stream anything!

Added after 2 minutes:

Thanks Al! I did do that already but not since I uninstalled and reinstalled! I'll try again I wished I didn't install the update to the newer version now!

You said the football was on the tele and corrie was on the PC. You telling fibs again to attract the male side of the forum to bring the booze.

Yes and it will be providing there's enough interest, booze and snacks - oh and few donations - we need a new wine chiller !

I would leave well alone if FF is working. Interestingly FF doesn't use Adobe Flashplayer as such, it uses an embedded version of it rather than the full version and it seems to be more resilient than the full version
