Yes, if it's urgent, use another browser (although Firefox would be my last choice of the majors - Chrome).

Are you using the 64-bit version of IE?  You should be using the 32-bit version of IE, as Adobe only has a Beta version of Flash for the 64-bit verson.  Go to Start and notice there are two versions of IE - Internet Explorer and Internet Explorer (64-bit).  Choose the one that just says Internet Explorer.

Try it, but I don’t understand … what said “download successful” and what “is not on the computer”?

Everything you are saying sounds like you are using the 64-bit browser.  Make sure you are using the 32-bit version of IE.

Also ... go to Tools, Manage Add-Ons, and make sure that Adobe Flash is Enabled.
