Are you downloading a 32 or 64 bit ?

Limiting what I drink after mid afternoon never makes any difference with me, in fact it often makes it worse plus there are other serious side effects of lack of fluids such as death.

Although a 32 bit should work on a 64 bit O/S it doesn't always depending on how Windows 8 was set up on your computer and if it is a 64 ?. Try downloading the 64 bit version.

Which browser are you using?

Firefox, having updated Flash player the day before due to concerns about security of the Player, the next day refused to get it suggesting it was too dangerous as a security risk.

I think the Flash developers were having a series of bad days trying to bring the product up to a reasonably secure specification.

On the other hand it crashes so often in Firefox (due to badly created adverts mostly I think) that Flash is hardly a product to be recommended despite its attempts at Global Domination.

2014 GP2 Champion Jolyon Palmer and I went to the same school in Surrey. He clearly learned a great deal from the example I set some 43 years earlier. So, with a great deal of thanks to Midgetman for the helmet, here are the Old Cranleighan's racing colours!

Also cheers to Gordon for his input

Security is a problem, even turning off anti virus and anti everything else no joy, using Explorer 12, tried using Chrome, all that produced was adverts from brussel sprouts to some one called Ellie, who was seeking her one and only, and Mrs P261 was not amused at that.

The fact that you've received unsolicited ads after installing Chrome makes me think that your computer has been compromised with malware.

Try installing Malwarebytes Free from www.malwarebytes.org - go to Downloads - Products - Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free

Download the software and reject any free trials of the full version etc. Let the system update itself and run a scan (it will take 10-30 minutes, maybe more). The chances are it will find a number of problems. Follow its advice regarding removal/quarantine of the problems it's found, then do a reboot.

Hopefully you'll see an improvement...

You do realise, Compte, that you more than likely left the ... place of education and life schooling ... some years before young 356sc was born?

The "valley" was possibly much changed in the interim period.

I will miss the sophistication of your red and silver head protection.

(I am loathe to use the word helmet in this regard lest the 21st century internet monitors record negative thoughts about me due to current, alleged, sensitivities of "thought process" compared to the times of freedom one experienced in our youth, Youth.)
