    Mego Museum vs. Adobe Flash

    In this fight, I'm the loser.

    Two to four times a day, my Explorer locks up and has to be restarted because this site and Flash do not mix. This is the only site with this issue. I've updated flash many times and am currently running version 10.2. I get a error message saying the site has encountered a problem with flash and explorer needs to be restarted.

    Am I the only one with this issue? Should I downgrade to version 9 and how do I do that? Ideas?

    I bet it's that dang animated add on the right of the main forum page.

    If so, get rid of that thing already - PLEASE --- it's crazy annoying anyway

      Sorry you are having troubles Scott. Computers drive me mental at times even though I have been using them for nearly 30 years now.

        What Flash is in the Museum?

          Are you referring to the small animated ad near the top right main page of the forum? I don't think that is flash. It looks like some sort of HTML gallery type plug-in. Try downloading Firefox at Mozilla.com. It's a much better browser that Internet Explorer. I suspect something in your browser is corrupted and IE is very hard to troubleshoot. Switch to Firefox, you'll be happy you did and that problem will go away.

              On second thought, it could be flash...

                  I totally second that --- Firefox rules!

                      Firefox might "rule" but it's not worth getting so you can watch an annoying add over and over and over and over.

                      I think the add should go, imo

                      Change it so it's not animated.

                              I have had a few probs with IE and the museum.
                              Firefox took care of all the issues I had.
