Do not install Adobe flash player 10 it will add a block to your computer. If you use Photobucket

Here's the official statement from PB

We are sorry that you are currently experiencing issues with the one-click copy feature provided with your Photobucket account. Adobe recently released Adobe Flash Player Version 10. There were changes in that program to prevent problems with potentially dangerous content being added to your clipboard. Those changes interacted with the one-click copy feature provided by Photobucket.

Photobucket is actively working on a resolution for the issue and plans to have that available in the near future.

I hate adobe! A number of years ago, when the PDF reader was updating it swept my computer for other of their products, It removed older versions of all the products I had been using. the PDF editor, and other PDF and photo software I had purchased.
The editor program was a down load. When I complained to them I was told tuff buy a new copy, I told them that I didn't need all the fancy stuff for what I did. They said to bad buy a big bucks copy and don't use the stuff.
So be careful as their stuff tends to auto load and install before you can stop it.
I removed flash player 10 and the auto copy now works again.

That's one of the reasons I've pretty much abandoned Adobe products. If you need a pdf reader, I recommend Fox-it. It does seem to have a bit of trouble with certain fonts, though. It seems to cut off the tails on "g", "p", and "q", and well, you get the idea. Still, much better than being a puppet for Adobe.

Does anybody know if this is still a problem? I just bought a new computer and YouTube requires the flash player to be installed. It looks like the only easily accessible version on Adobe's site is version 10.

You can download versions 2 thru 10 here:

Now if you do reinstall any version 2-9 you still have to have the auto install programs turned off or the check for updates. As it will ask every time you start your computer to install the latest version of the flash player.
