I have been fighting this for several months and cannot figure it out.
My Adobe flash player is screwed up and gives me a double picture in the video window.
Yet it almost always works perfect for the darn commercials!
Here's some screen shots:

I have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Flash Player several times and still get the same thing.
I even used a Flash Player Cleaner Tool from the Adobe website, and still get the same problem.
This all started when I installed a 90-day trial of Microsoft Visual Basic that I needed for a class.
I no longer need VB and it has been uninstalled, but still the problem won't go away.

Anyone got any ideas?

What version OS and what browser are you using? Do you have another browser installed that you could test as well?

Microsoft Internet Explorer 8

I don't have any other browsers installed. ;)

Get and install Mozilla Firefox... It is WAY better than Internet Exploder... And then you can download the various plug-ins that it will need... It's all free (great for those of us on a budget), and it works perfectly... The ONLY thing I still use IE for is the Winblows updates... Microswipe kinda requires those be done with IE... Something about hating competition or some such garbage...

See if that doesn't fix your problem...

I agree to try firefox although i'm not so sure that will fix the core issue. I found another post online regarding the same issue post 07-03-2010, was recommended to upgrade to the latest version which worked for that user . also what version of flash are u using? if you have the beta 10.1 try a 32 bit browser.

BINGO! :P

I_DI_EZ that link showed the same problem and it was fixed by a suggestion to update the display driver.

Well I had done that before, but since it worked for that person, I decided to try again.
First I did a deep clean removal of my current display driver before adding the newest one, just to make sure no left over issues.
And it worked, I now have one video and it is once again clear.

Thanks for the link I_DI_EZ, and thanks everyone else for helping search for a solution too. 8-)
