    Its there in the control panel - Add/ remove progs, but it just doesnt do anything! Mr WT is home now and he is also totally stumped too. Thanks for the advice though, anything is worth a try!

    If you are updating the flashplayer, you need to uninstall you current version. There is a link on the flashplayer website to be able to do this. Once your old version is uninstalled, you can install the new version.

    Fiorelli, thanks for that but I didnt have flash player installed at all as it was uninstalled a few months ago. I have since found out though that a collaegue of mine in work has just this weekend had the very same problem and he has a brand new computer.

    I've given up!
