Escalader Internet Explorer uses a sort of different 'type' of flash player. So you need one for IE and one for any other browser you use. If you look here for example on FileHippo and scroll down a bit to where it says Related Downloads you will see the Flash download links for IE 64bit Other browsers 64bit IE 32bit http://www.filehippo.com/download_flashplayer_ie/ Other browsers 32bit. If you open flash player icon in your PC Control Panel and click the advanced tab it should tell you there what number version you have, and if there are 2 listed you have one for each browser (IE and non IE) If you are running Windows 8, Flash is built into IE10 and Windows Updates takes care of it for you.
You were asking,Escalader: How Flash Player installed on various browsers differ. Always download your software from sources that you trust. < -
When I followed the link in trusted it said So where is the reputable site for the adobe flash? My guess is adobe itself?
Filehippo flash player download is directly from Adobe as is now requested by Adobe. Same reason as why the installer full version cannot be linked to here on Wilders (link explaining this added) https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=332454

I'm very sorry if my comment is not very well-spoken but why not using secunia psi, surfpatrol or browsercheck instead of tracking vulnerabilities manually?
