    I recently changed the settings on Mozilla Firefox. I erased my web history & set my settings back to default. I changed my homepage to Google search. That's all I remember doing. I then updated to the newest version of Adobe Flash Player.

    Now I can't view the 3reef logo at the top-left of the website. I thought it was just the forum, but now I can't view Youtube videos either, or basically anything inter-active, like the 3reef logo or facebook games, for example.

    What's wrong? lol. I feel kinda dumb for being all "tech-savvy", yet not knowing how to fix this.:confused:::)

    You probably need to download a flash or something...

    Flash player never shows up in the start menu. It's not really used as a standalone environment (only occasionally with AIR), just in browsers.

    In Firefox, go to Tools > Addons > Plugins, and see if Flash is in there. That would be where you need to look to see if it's installed.

    Ah, just the man I was looking for.

    It has showed up before, in my start menu, when I search for it.

    But no, it did not appear with the plug-ins.

    How do I take a screen-shot?

    Nope, that's not it. What I get is still on Adobe's site.

    Hmmm when I clicked on your links that's what I got!

    Do you have one note or Windows 7?

    Windows Vista (Home Premium, I think).

    Windows 7 has a snipping tool, but I don't think Vista has that.

    Use your search function and see if you have One Note (it comes with Microsoft Office - but only the more expensive versions).
