Q: i want to go on you tube the cw and chat on yahoo but the only problem is i don't have flash 9! why does almost every single website need flash and whats wrong without it! and also is it true that every single game puts viruses on comps?
A: Flash 9 is a web based media player. Much like how windows media player plays music and videos on your computer. Unlike wmp though, flash is used by many website to stream everything from video to games. As for every game putting viruses on your computer, no they don't. As long as you buy the game from a reputable store and it is not pirated you should never see a virus from the installation of a game.
