When I go to certain video websites to watch videos (YouTube, etc.) a screen pops up and said the video is blocked because my Adobe Flash drive is outdated.

Your System Details shows you have the current player.

If you have problems with current Shockwave Flash plugin versions then check this:

  • see if there are updates for your graphics drivers

  • disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
