Adobe Flash Player Issue?
I've recently been getting a constant pop up of an error saying "Adobe Flash Player Update Service 11.6 r602 stopped working and was closed" about every hour give or take. I'm using chrome on Vista Home 64. I have done just about everything from:
1. Installing the external Flash player and disabling the internal chrome plugin.
2. Disabling through the "services" configuration file.
3. Reverting to flash 10
4. Using CCleaner
The only thing I haven't done is reinstalling Chrome which I really don't want to do. The Adobe forums don't really have any answers. If anyone knows another solution please help! Here is a url to a picture of the error: http://i.imgur.com/0mj0nZG.jpg

It possible has anything to do with the web page that you are on,as that occurs to me when I play a unique game on facebook,it only happens on that 1 game and no where else,in order that web site can't observe that you've the brand new variant and it occurs for me utilising I E 9,Google Chrome and Firefox so therefore it's not the browsers.
