Lots of windows updates have been issued so you likely have either done those are will be very soon hopefully.

But also critical updates for Flash on all browsers, that means if you have firefox you must go with your firefox browser and get the flash update for the NON IE flash then restart the browser, you also must go with IE to get the update for IE and update it also, any browsers you have on the pc must be updated individually with that browser.
Be sure to watch carefully so you uncheck any extras that may appear like toolbars, browsers etc, you don't want those just the update.

Other adobe items need updating also including Air and shockwave.

I will link to Corrine's blog where you will find all the links you need to do these updates.
Remember these are critical security updates!

How does this affect those of us who have Mac OS but use Firefox browsers in order to get flash? I updated my safari and lost flash for about a week. Yesterday I learned that if I downloaded Firefox I would be able to get it back, so I did, yesterday morning. Do I need to do something else now? Thanks!

If they are still available, would love the Flowering Quince, Cosmonaut Volkov tomato, Rose de Berne tomato and African Togo tomato (these in particular look so cool!). Thanks! Sincerely, Shannon

Updating home - Is my order of updates correct?

@User - Not pot lights, but more of a modern style for the dining room and at the base of the stairs - those are both super traditional and its small but has a big impact when you swap them out. If you paint a griege (even lighter maybe than what you mention) it will immediately make your house feel more modern/clean lines. the white is too much of a contrast and isnt' bright like it likely once was. Your tile isn't that bad, the grey/non-tan will pop out with a difference color paint. We did a full house in similar situation a few years ago - changing the spindles/under the steps on the stairway made a MASSIVE change. I couldn't believe what a difference it made. We called around and some places were charging $$$$ to do the stairs, once guy offered to use a sprayer and it was like $500 and done in a day. I had worked on it myself for about 40 hours by that point and realized the bloggers were crazy that thought it was just simple and easy and fast. This house WILL look exactly like you want it too.

Kitchen update limited budget UPDATED

Paint a neutral color. I would think cream since you have warmer tones and hire a crew to do a super deep clean. If there are any obvious broken stuff like switch plates or whatever, then replace because people will assume a place hasn't been maintained well if they see broken stuff. I live in a high rise and recently two almost identical apartments were sold - same size and layout and both were going to need serious updating. One person did nothing but paint and got $50,000 more than the person who did nothing. Both places really needed gut remodels in kitchen and baths and the one that sold for $50,000 more even had terrible water damage on the floors so that it would have to be replaced quite obviously. You are never going to be able to actually upgrade so that it looks 2023 so why bother to do anything since you are going to attract a buyer who either wants to redo to their own taste OR who is happy to get a functional home for less money than it would be if it were remodeled.

It's unclear as to why you are saving a corner at the sofa for lanterns and other "stuff", and why the tv and console you now have, are jammed to a corner! Draw and measure the space, show where the kitchen/dining is. All the walls, windows, openings in feet and inches, Please Upload that as a very legible j peg.

Hi, jae_tn. You might try this link for your Mac:
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
Be prepared for an upcoming critical security update for Adobe products. This time Adobe Reader & Acrobat. Mitigation instructions and other info available in the link below. Let's hope Adobe gets the update out quickly but also gets it right! Here is a link that might be useful: [Critical Security Advisory for Adobe Reader/Acrobat](http://securitygarden.blogspot.com/2013/02/critical-security-advisory-for-adobe.html)

Thanks for posting this. I've been having some problems and needed abode updated. But... let me ask, why can't I do it from firefox? I have to go to IE to download most things, FF won't let me open things in email so I have to switch back to IE everytime.

I finally got used to FF & really like it but its so frustrating when you can open things or download anything. Do I need to re-set something? Thanks

Have you set firefox as your default browser that sounds like the problem you still have IE as the default browser.
Tools> options> advanced tab> system defaults> always make sure firefox is the default browser needs to be checked

I went to Tools> options> advanced tab>...... but there was no... system defaults. It did say somewhere FF was my default and I checked the box that said to warm me if changed. I didn't see anything else I could do
any other ideas?

Hi, joann_fla.

What types of things are you trying to open with Firefox from your e-mail? Are you referring to URL links embedded in an e-mail?

I hope the following isn't confusing. It is based on my testing of URLs created in FF and IE. You may be experiencing something similar with subscriptions of forum posts.

When I add a URL to an e-mail in Firefox and do not format it as a URL (click the URL symbol and paste the address), it will not be clickable with either Firefox or IE.

Conversely, pasting the same URL in an e-mail created in IE9 automatically formats as clickable.

Anything I receive in email will not open if its a attachment. I have to go to IE and then it will download. I don't know what's wrong.

To find the version of FF that you have, click on Help at the top of the page and go down to "About Firefox". It will tell you what version you have. Under Firefox, mine says 18.0.2
