Do you ever have problems with Adobe Flash player ? (and IE-11 question)

Occasionally it will seem to disappear from my computer, though it is still there. Usually I will close all open windows and mst of my desktop icons will be white or at least looking as they should, screen blink, icons begin to reset to look the way they should, reopen windows, Flash player usually works again... however now and then I will have reinstall it.
Just now I was watching a Groove3 vid online. I watched one part of the Whats New in X3 vid and when I opened the next one I had a white screen with a grey circle and ! in the middle. A message tells me I do not have Adobe Flash Player installed.. but I do, I just used it.
Does anyone know a fix to this so I do not have to keep "fixing it"?
 
edit> I went ahead and reinstalled AFP, tried to play the next segment... same message, no AFP installed. Closed all windows and now it works again. What am I doing wrong?
 
Is anyone using IE 11? This is a W7 64bit computer. I have been using IE9 and have had no problems. I tried 10 a few times but always rolled back for some reason or another. Am thinking of trying IE11, I have tried Firefox and just never liked it. I've tried Chrome but something about having too much Google bothers me... and IE works well for me, at least IE9 has. Any thoughts on 11 ?
 
Thanks,
Bozo

    Well, if it was always there it wouldn't be flashing now, would it?
     
    Anyway, I'm still using IE9 and it works all the time there (although I've had to start using Firefox for sites that don't support IE9).

    Sites don't support ie9? I think I have seen that but IIRC, it always worked anyway.

    Yeah.  Unfortunately for me, the two main sites include the one I use to create a client's website and my bank!

    Banks just don't care. Well, Tony might. I may need a website. There is a local guy but he is REALLY expensive.. but I am serious, I may want to do a website. Do you have a website about your websites that you can PM me the URL?
    Thanks,

    I'm mainly doing the organizing of both the online and "brick and mortar" stores along with creating the inventory/supply system and all images.
     
    In other words, I'm not doing anything fancy to create the websites.  All the tricky stuff really doesn't have to do with normal website tools (like Dreamweaver or Flash, etc.).  I have my websites on 1and1 and none of them even have a home page.  I only use them for email and storage.
     
    Here's the old/current website.
     
    And this is the temporary URL for the new one.
     
    As you can see, they're both online stores.  I don't know what your intent is for a website, but I'm guessing these would probably be overkill (and I also doubt you're looking to pay a few thousand to have a site created plus a nice monthly chunk to keep it going).  If all you need is a basic site, check out 1and1 (and others that, I'm sure, people will chime in with) because they offer attractive pricing and have templates for all sorts of different kinds of websites.

    Mine stopped working for absolutely no reason. I was forced to start using Google Chrome so I could watch video clips. I like IE better but it no longer likes Flash Player so it's now banished.
