Firefox – Install Flash Player on Firefox w/o admin access

firefoxflash-playerinstallationnon-admin

Say, juys.

I'd really like a way to install Adobe Flash Player 10 (or latest version) on Firefox 3 without having admin access in a corporate environment. Because I'm a limited user, I can't do the install myself with or without Adobe Download Manager. Is there any way to accomplish this, anyone?

Should I try something like Portable Apps maybe?

Thanks very much!

How-To-Geek had an article about installing Flash 9 in FireFox manually. Follow the steps to install into your profile not the All Users profile, as that will probably be locked down by the Corporate IT Department. I haven't tested it with Flash 10 myself.

I would warn however that your IT department may well frown upon installing Flash 10 this way. Depending on the organisations policies, manually installing software could be breaking the companies Acceptable Use Policy.
