there was an adblock, but I disabled and tried with out it.

I haven't physically got rid on any remant folders after the un install. I might try that.

Moved this to correct forum since this is not a Windows problem.

In Chrome, enter chrome://plugins in the omnibox (the URL address box) and see if you have more than one Flash plugin enabled. Disabled the old version (try to leave the built-in Flash enabled).

Thanks Mauricio

I knew it would be a flash issue but didn't know that could be done in Chrome.

All fixed.

Cheers!
