Hi. I booted up my computer, and got a request from Adobe Flash player to
update. Ok then, sure will...if I could read more on the buttons than
"button", "q button" and "i button." That's seriously all they said. I'll
have to go to the website and install it that way because I can't navigate
this installer.
My big question is how did it get broken?

Agreed, I expected better from Adobe, and things have been very good
in the recent past.
I guess this was a very urgent release due to a security flaw in Flash
player, at lesat according to the BBC News web site, and perhaps
proper care was not taken with testing the installer, but I have the
same issues to report, using Jaws 11 on a Windows 7 machine.

Andrew,
You may also want to look at the Mac installer and the Windows Firefox
installer. Both of them exhibit similar difficulties.
