adobe flash player wont install?

www.gamespot.com wont work on my computer, and im assuming its because i don't have the flash player that they use (if needed i can post a screenshot of what the website looks like when i visit it), yet every time i go to the flash website that gamestop.com links to to install it, it installs, then doesnt work when i go back to the site, then if i go back to the flash website and attempt to install it again its as if i never installed it in the first place (the flash thing they have on their website to show you that its working doesnt work untill i run their install again)...

i always have to enable activex to make it install, then the 2nd time i try and run the install it tells me internet explorer blocked activex on this website and doesnt give me an option to enable it, i also tried downloading the flash file individually using firefox and installing that, which also didnt work

can anyone help me? this is really frustrating, i'll be on here throughout the day checking this so i can answer any questions you have about this

Uninstall flash player using Adobe site.

Reboot and install new flash player and plugins. (IE) or (non IE)

Make sure you have plugins/add ons.

do you have a firewall or protection running, disconnect from the Internet and disativate the protection/firewall, install then reactivate the protection, let us know if no joy.
