Adobe Flash

After finishing this thread, I went to watch my local news & ONLY when I go full screen, I see this.

I tried updating but it still happens. It don't matter if I use Firefox or SeaMonkey, I still get that.
According to this website http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
I'm current. I know I'm
In the control panel, it shows as 32 bit.

What exactly is happening? Is it popping up with a 'an update is available!' window?

Try restarting the PC.

I restarted the pc & it still happens. I go here http://www.kirotv.com click on the

Watch live now banner that takes me to

And then I go full screen & that is when the adobe flash shows up in the taskbar.

This happens sometimes. If you click on the Flash icon, it'll swap on over to the fullscreen video.

Ok, I'm still able to watch it, but previously it was FULL screen, now the taskbar shows. Here is what I see when I right click the adobe flash icon in taskbar.
I'll live with it, thank you

This happens at my school but not here at home. It may be something in settings

What happens if you left-click on it?

Nothing.

*Shrugs* Normally if I click on the Flash icon, it'll just go full-screen like any other full-screen app.

Try unpinning it from your Task Bar. Left click on the Icon in the task bar. When the little menu That shows the full version of the Flash 11.5 r502. Right click on it. It should give you a option to unpin it from the task bar.

As others have pointed out, the Flash Player is the full screen video. It disappears when one exits out of full screen mode. Hovering the mouse over it shows the content.

It more or less a setting in the browser he is using. When he hovers over it and the little menu comes up. Can he close it out?

It ONLY happens in full screen.

It wasn't pinned to the taskbar. But I did pin it to the taskbar

and minimized.

Oddly enough, I just tried it in IE & it was normal, no adobe flash icon showed up.

Have you tried unpinning it from the task bar? If this dose not work. It my be a setting in sea monkey your browser.

Yes, I did unpin it. It happens in both SeaMonkey & Firefox.

Although the problem still exists, I've found a temporary fix.
I right clicked the task >properties & put the taskbar on auto hide. Using full screen,I don't see the browser icon or adobe icon.

What was the problem? Adobe Flash Player icon on the task bar when FF is running but not in IE while playing full screen video? Odd behavior maybe, but I don't think it's really a problem. Those are two different plugins. Anyway, I've never really noticed it since my task bar is hidden most of the time.

Going here http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=50139451n in full screen, I was seeing the image in post #14 in both Firefox & SeaMonkey. I tried it in IE & it didn't happen.
I just thought I'd try putting the taskber on auto hide, so now when I watch the above link or post # 3, I don't see the Adobe flash player icon.
I'm just going to leave my taskbar hidden. Perhaps the next Adobe update "might" fix it. I'm still able to watch the news & videos.
