File Hippo App Manager

[Gerianne]

I found this yesterday. I was having trouble with flash plugins on firefox.
I deleted adblock and microsoft silverlight. I had accumulated such programs that didn't solve the issue.
All a person needs is one program that works best, not 3 or 4 in an attempt to work together. Fusioncash may have some technical difficulty at times with some videos. I want to be sure that I have the best and current updates. In just one day, it cleared up  the issues I had. A computer friend of mine told me about Hippo Files a few years ago. I am glad I found this app manager. I don't have to go to the website I have bookmarked. It keeps all my programs updated. What a help.

I had to quit using firefox.  I kept having computer issues when I would use that browser.

If you are having flash player related problems in you browser it is most likely that you have an outdated flash player.. Nowadays browsers such as Firefox and Google Chrome automatically update it's version to the newest one. However your flashplayer and javascript don't automatically update with your browser, causing compatibility issue and therefore freezes, not working, etc. That is why I can't wait until flashplayer gets replaced by HTML5 so you don't have to keep updating it (especially with all the vulnerability flash has)

I use PSI secunia.. Another software update monitor

Flash gives everyone headaches.  It's an Adobe product.. enough said.  If you ever feel like one of your plugins are not working the way they should, you can always check for updates yourself.  Open up the Firefox "Add-Ons," click on "Plugins" and at the top of that page, click on the words "Check to see if your plugins are up to date."

FileHippo App Manager is a great little thing to have.  I use it to keep my programs up-to-date because I hate having all these programs checking in the background constantly for updates and using up resources I don't have to use.  I much prefer checking for those updates myself and making sure they're not sneaking in OTHER programs in the updates that I don't want.
