Flash Player Load Failure in MSIE

Hi, I seem unable to get Adobe Flash Player to load using IE7. It was fine until I 'upgraded' to IE8 (Flash Player didn't load at that point, so I dropped back to IE7 and haven't been able to install since). Flash Player is working (has continually worked) with Firefox. Getting _some_ advice on Adobe's site, where they point to this being being a 'Registry Permissions' problem, I downloaded, and ran, reset_fp10.cmd (which was meant to allow me to "repair Flash Player file system permissions" and ultimately install Flash Player). However, when this command script is run, it doesn't sort the problem - the script itself seems to fail with: 'subinac1' is not recognized as an internal or external command. I have tried several ways - uninstalling Flash Player, trying this in Safe Mode but getting nowhere (and Firefox continues to run ok!). I don't understand any of this ^ - I push buttons, hope everything works. Can someone _please_ advise me? tia, David.

>enable or disable (whatever is needed) add-ins on IE Thanks for your reply Sebastian, however Flash Player isn't shown in the Manage Add-ons to either disable _or_ enable (it's not shown in the list under 'Add-ons currently loaded' nor in any other tab in Manage Add-ons). Using IE, I'm simply in a (non-working) loop of "do you want to install?" through to "failed to install". It does seem to be a Permissions problem (for IE!) and the failure of reset_fp10.cmd.

Does _anyone_ have a clue about how to fix this problem? I am still attempting to get MSIE to run Flash Player (Firefox sails on without the hint of any problem!).
