Old/Temporary Solution: 

Note: this is no longer required.  See the new solution above.  Contact support and request version 1.2.1.

We recommend uninstalling Flash Player (11.8.800.94) and reinstalling a prior compatible version, specifically (10.3.183.90). 

To install Flash Player (10.3.183.90) please follow these steps:

First:  Uninstall Flash Player (11.8.800.94).  

Go to the Adobe website and follow the un-installing directions provided:

Second:  Install Flash Player (10.3.183.90).  

Please download and install Flash Player (10.3.183.90) from the Adobe website here:
