Uninstall/Reinstall Flash™

Other Options
If clearing the cache and reinstalling Flash™ doesn't resolve the issue, and the exercise window just stays blank when you launch an exercise, it may be the result of some malicious software infecting the system. There are numerous flavors of spyware and adware that reside in or operate from your browser's cache that can cause this issue. We recommend the following:
-
If you have anti-virus software, run its Update procedure, and fully scan your system for viruses. Take the course of action recommended by the software if any infections are found. If you don't have an anti-virus program, get one as soon as possible. There are several high-quality free programs out there -- just do your homework before you select one.
-
Scan your entire system with one or two reputable anti-spyware programs. Be sure to run the Update procedure before scanning so that the software can detect the latest threats. After scanning, perform the recommended actions if anything is found.
