Thank you so much Pat. My first question is: Do I need Adobe since I have Windows Media Player?

If I don't need it, then I shall simplify my life by uninstalling the Adobe to avoid duplication (and which I don't know how I got it!) :o)

If I do need it, please tell me how Adobe is better than Windows Media Player so that I can then uninstall Windows Media Player?

According to Belarc, I have the following Adobe items:

Adobe Photoshop Album Starter Edition Version 3.0.0.49815
Adobe Reader Version 8.0.0.2006102300

As to Flash Player...I don't think I have it since Belarc didn't come up with.

If I must use Adobe instead of the Windows M.P., would you kindly let me know whether I need to also install Flash Player? And is it also free as are the two I have and mentioned above?

Please forgive the lengthy post, but I'm confused and thought breaking it down this way I could explain it better.

Thanks ever SO much for clarifying to me all of the above? :o)Adela
