Firefox says web page needs plugins. Click to install them, but Flash Player install (default is older version) fails. Try to do manual install. File downloads, but when I try to install, Zone Alarm alerts on the program. It does this repeatedly with the program name adding a '_1' to its name each loop. Eventually, the install quits and nothing is installed.

After going through the Adobe troubleshooting steps several times, finally found the following link to download Flashplayer directly: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_64bit.exe

Once installed, Flash started working.
