Re: [The Computer Hardware Technician] Adobe Flash

Not wrong Kelly, lots of sites need Adobe Flash to run properly.

This tells you why.

Adobe Flash (formerly Macromedia Flash) is a multimedia platform used to add
animation, video, and interactivity to web pages. Flash is frequently used
for advertisements, games and flash animations for broadcast. More recently,
it has been positioned as a tool for "Rich Internet Applications" ("RIAs").
Flash manipulates vector and raster graphics to provide animation of text,
drawings, and still images. It supports bidirectional streaming of audio and
video, and it can capture user input via mouse, keyboard, microphone, and
camera. Flash contains an object-oriented language called ActionScript and
supports automation via the Javascript Flash language (JSFL).
Flash content may be displayed on various computer systems and devices,
using Adobe Flash Player, which is available free of charge for common web
browsers, some mobile phones and a few other electronic devices (using Flash
Lite).
Some users feel that Flash enriches their web experience, while others find
the extensive use of Flash animation, particularly in advertising, intrusive
and annoying, giving rise to a cottage industry that specializes in blocking
Flash content. Flash has also been criticized for adversely affecting the
usability of web pages.[1

I must have a setting wrong somewhere. Every page I go to almost wants to
run Adobe Flash object or something to that effect. Must be something in my
security settings that I need to set different. Can someone give my a clue
please?
