Win 7, IE 8, and Adobe Flash problem

[roglc]

My IE 8 locks up randomly when I try to change to a different tab or when I
try to close IE 8. I've disabled the Adobe Flash add-on and the problems go
away. I removed Adobe Flash using the control panel and then downloaded and
reinstalled the add-on but the problem returns. What else do I need to check
or try to correct this problem? I have a new install of Win 7 Professional
with all the latest updates applied and the latest version of the Adobe Flash
Player.

Thanks

If you're having a problem with Flash, your best chance of resolution
comes from Adobe Technical Support or (even better) the Flash User Forum
on Adobe's website.
