Your System Details shows;

Installed Plug-ins

Shockwave Flash 14.0 r0 Shockwave Flash 11.7 r700 Shockwave Flash 11.4 r402

Having more than one version of a program may cause issues.

Flash is notorious for not cleaning out the older version as part of an update. Grab the uninstaller from here: Uninstall Flash Player | Windows Uninstall Flash Player | Mac

Then reinstall the latest version.

Shockwave Flash v14. http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/ The link for Flash Player is: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
