Please, first, I'm not "into" computers. So, bear with me on the question.

Since yesterday, and only on this site, I keep getting a warning on my screen saying something like my adobe flash..whatever is attempting something from whatever site...I thought it was, again, just something with my own computer, but this morning I get to work and the same message is popping up! When I hit "ok" it goes away but then a few minutes later the warning pops up again.

What do I need to do?

Thanks

I had this same problem! I had to go into my flash player and change the security settings, so far so good! This morning, I finally read the whole message I was getting and there's a link in there to change the settings. Good luck!

When I rebooted my computer last night it said there was an Adobe Flash Player update to be done. It said it was for High Def and a couple of other things that don't apply to me that I'm aware of, so I hit the button that said to remind me later. Must consult with my IT specialist a/k/a my ex-husband!!! I doubt I actually NEED it, but I hope it's not going to cause me issues as a result if I DON'T update!!! noway grumble

Thanks y'all. I do all kinds of crap at home to my computer, so I figured I'd screwed it up (again) but here at work, I limit what I do and don't download anything except forms from the IRS & state gov'ts. So when it started happening here to........anyway, thanks again.

I found out it only pops up on this site. I was on the web for about an hr and it never did pop up.

This is the message I was getting:

Adobe flash player has stopped a potentially unsafe operation to the following local application on your computer or network:

javascrpt:windows [contents] is trying to communicate withe internet=enabled location:

page2ad.googlesyndication.com

to allow the application communicate with the internet click settings

Like I know...but I think maybe it's an ad that has been placed on the website causing this and if the settings are changed, the message stops.

I have not come across such a message on either my PC or Mac, but will keep an eye out. I'll even check out all corners of the site, to see if it's a particular ad. Perhaps updating Adobe or changing your settings is the way to go. Wish I could shed more light on the matter.

Thank you, I changed the settings on the computer at work and it stopped, but here at home, for some reason, it's still happening...but only when I'm at this site Charles.

Hmm, I'm not sure what else to suggest. I'll continue to try to elicit response on this site, but I'm starting to think that I won't come across it at this point (since I have not yet seen it).

It keeps happening on my computer, too, though not as often today as yesterday.
