Re: Upgrade your flash player in media centre.AGAIN!!!!!!!!

I'm glad to hear things are working. Thanks for posting back. Synapse
Syndrome had a good point about the Disk Cleanup Wizard, and the warning
about cleaning the Downloaded Program Files folder. It's a
not-very-well-named special system folder (it used to be called Occache)
that stores information and files for your Internet Explorer ActiveX
plug-ins. Deleting the files in that folder will effectively disable the
add-ons, like Flash Player, until they are re-installed.
