I cannot upgrade my Adobe Flash Plugin. The dialog box keeps telling me that I need to close Firefox and Firefox is not open.

If you have the Flash installer already downloaded, restart your computer, then try running the Flash installer. then try to start firefox up and upgrade to Firefox 11. Does that work? Usually problems like this are caused by a bad extension, so if that works we can diagnose your extensions.

Also - this occurs even though I have closed Firefox AND killed the Firefox.exe process in Task Manager AND ensured that on the Applications Tab in Task Manager that there are NO other instances of Firefox that are running.
