Adobe Flash Player Installer

Windows 7 64 Bit, IE 8 64 Bit
Some pages when opened pop up a bar at the top wanting to Install
Adobe Flash Player Installer. I have clicked to allow this to be installed,
but it apparently does not install. I suspect this to be because it is not
a 64 bit application. How can I either install it or stop this pop up bar?

Sorry about the dupe posting... I got an indication that my first effort
did not go thru.

Right, I'm fine, can use IE8 in either 64 or 32 bit. Was just wondering if
I was missing something that would work with the 64 bit.

What part of "There isn't a 64-bit version of Flash Player" don't you
understand, Earl?

If you're having problems with Flash in IE8 32-bit...

I thought my last response clearly acknowledged that I understood there
was no 64-bit Flash Player, indicating that I also knew, from your earlier
posting, how to access and use my 32-bit IE8. Perhaps my attempt at
brevity needs to be re-examined.

I somehow lost the blue "E" in my task bar to open IE 8. I finally found the
program and put a shortcut on my desktop, but it must be opening the 64 bit
version, as I can't view any videos when I could before. Flash Player keeps
bugging me, even though I have the program already. How do I access the 32
bit version so Flash Player will work again?
