Keyboard layout switching blocks Flash Player plugin

Hello!

I use a component of switch software available on the keyboard by program. It works OK except with the plugins Flash Player in Firefox and Chrome. When the plugin is activated, try to pass the keyboard causes in this comletely browser freezes. I wrote a small C program to test the issue (see the bottom of post), and the program hangs on line

SendMessageA (hwnd, WM_INPUTLANGCHANGEREQUEST, 0, (LPARAM) page layout);

I tried to disable hardware acceleration of Flash Player and even to start Windows in safe mode with network drivers, nothing works. But opera and IE work well and layout in the Panel tasks switching system also works well. Who can tell what may be the cause?

My system is:

Lenovo G770

Windows 7 Home Basic 64 SP1

Flash Player 15.0.0.189

#include < windows.h >

#include < stdio.h >

#define MAX_LAYOUT_NUMBER 32

int main (int argc, char * argv)

{

Layouts HKL [MAX_LAYOUT_NUMBER];

int nLayouts;

HWND hwnd = 0;

DWORD threadID, processID;

Development of HKL;

int i;

BOOL finds;

nLayouts = GetKeyboardLayoutList (MAX_LAYOUT_NUMBER, layouts);

If (nLayouts < = 0) {}

fprintf (stderr, "error: GetKeyboardLayoutList returned %d\n", nLayouts);

Return 1;

}

If (nLayouts == 1) {}

printf ("what a single keyboard layout detected\n");

return 0;

}

If (argc > 1) {}

If (sscanf (argv [1], "%X", & hwnd)! = 1) {}

fprintf (stderr, "error: Invalid window handle \"%s\"\n", argv [1]);

Return 1;

}

}

Time for the user to move to the desired application

Sleep (5000);

If (hwnd == 0) {}

HWND = GetForegroundWindow();

If (hwnd == NULL) {}

fprintf (stderr, "error: returned from GetForegroundWindow NULL\n");

Return 1;

}

}

{

char buf [MAX_PATH];

If (GetWindowTextA (hwnd, buf, MAX_PATH) > 0)

printf ("the target window is %.8X (%s) \n", hwnd, buf);

on the other

printf ("the target window is %.8X\n," hwnd);

}

threadID = GetWindowThreadProcessId (hwnd, & processID);

If (threadID == 0) {}

fprintf (stderr, "error: GetWindowThreadProcessId returned NULL\n");

Return 1;

}

printf ("Sound process and thread IDS is %.8X and %.8X\n", processID, threadID);

layout = GetKeyboardLayout (threadID);

If (available == NULL) {}

fprintf (stderr, "error: returned from GetKeyboardLayout NULL\n");

Return 1;

}

printf ("current keyboard layout is %.8X\n", layout);

found = FALSE;

for (i = 0; i < nLayouts; ++ I)

If (available is {layouts [i]})

found = TRUE;

layout = layouts [I < nLayouts-1? i + 1:0];

break;

}

If (! found) {}

fprintf (stderr, "error: could not find the current provision in the list");

Return 1;

}

printf ("Activation %.8X\n", layout);

SendMessageA (hwnd, WM_INPUTLANGCHANGEREQUEST, 0, (LPARAM) page layout);

layout = GetKeyboardLayout (threadID);

If (available == NULL) {}

fprintf (stderr, "error: returned from GetKeyboardLayout NULL\n");

Return 1;

}

printf ("the new keyboard layout is %.8X\n", layout);

return 0;

}

I have it! Everything works OK after the withdrawal of the "movies Toolbar", which is a malicious adware advertising ask.com. When I installed this? *

  • Flash Player Plugin tries to access internet arriving on account login pages

    Adobe Flash Player Plugin 11.8 r800
    Software firewall: ZoneAlarm

    My firewall is set to "Manual control" and I get warnings for all attempts to access from the Internet.
    Firefox is already granted outbound access to the Internet, so I surfed without additional warnings. So if I go on YouTube, I can watch videos without receiving a prompt from my firewall.

    However when I visit a secure account login page (where I have to enter my username and PW) the firewall warns me that 'Firefox tries to use Adobe Flash Player 11.8 r800 to access the Internet.

    A prompt like this is provided by the firewall when a program uses another Internet access. If for example I click on a link in MS Excel, the firewall will tell me that Excel tries to use Firefox to access the Internet.

    Makes me concerned is:
    (1) Firefox already has access privileges. It should not "use Flash to access the internet.
    (2) this happens when I am about to use the keyboard to enter sensitive data in a secure page
    (3) there is no [apparent] Flash elements on the login pages.

    Could I have acquired a malicious Flash software that tries to collect the keystrokes and transmit somewhere? Is there a way to show (in Firefox) which Flash file works at some point? (This would let me distinguish what is what makes the access attempt)

    I am completely protected with Antivirus, anti-spam and breach prevention software. I also run Norton Power Eraser to see if there was anything at the root level. Nothing found.

    Thanks in advance for your comments.

    Pages can use Flash, even when there is no video is displayed. For example some sites use Flash for menus, some for audio and some may load Flash in their Google Analytics scripts so that they know as much as possible on your system.

    In most cases, the Flash Player will try to load a. SWF file, even if maybe it's not always easy. You might look for it in the Firefox Web Console.

    When viewing the page, press Ctrl + Shift + k, the reload of the page. If there is a request to support Flash on the page, it should appear in the console (if the request is blocked by a firewall, it must nevertheless appear as pending a request). There is a search/filter box where you could try to enter .swf to reduce the time needed to go through the list. You can find the URL of the requested file? That might or might not make you comfortable on demand.

    There's a person in this thread in the forum with a username of irdoc who said:

    "I'm also unable to get Adobe Flash Player 13 (v. 13.0.0.182) works fine on my Mac, even after using the Adobe Flash Player Uninstaller." My previous version (v. 12.0.0.77) works very well, and the only way I can get Flash Player to work is by removing v13, v12 by reinstalling.

    My Mac is a MacPro 1,1... »

    It is possible that there is a problem with Adobe Flash player specifically. Have you tried to watch videos with other browsers?

    As a warning, I tried to find a safe place to download the 12.0.0.77 version, but I couldn't find one without risk. Be careful if you decide to go this route. Make sure you have at least some form of antivirus and firewall before you try this.

    Apparently this problem with Adobe took place April 8 this year, so it's fairly new. In addition, apparently Chrome uses an integrated in flash player which does not have this plug-in. If really you need or want to watch videos, and it is a problem with Adobe, you can use Chrome for now.

    Hi sgcpenny, Flash is by far the most common plugin. I think it is unlikely that the others work on the sites where you don't want to run. It does not hurt to try the setting and see if it works for you.

  • I have Adobe Flash Player Plugin for Firefox, but still miss me Flash Player?

    So I installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player Plugin for Firefox and I am able to watch videos of youtube on my browser and other things that require flash player, but I have a disc that I got with my Samsung screen, and when I put it in my computer, it says that I do not actually have flash player. Also, when I try to play a game, DawnGate, theres a black box where a video should be and he says that I don't have a flash drive, and it is necessary to watch these videos. I tried to uninstall and I was unable to Watch youtube videos, and when I reinstalled, I was able to Watch youtube even once, but that did not fix my problem. Is there something that I am missing? I look forward to hearing from someone soon.

  • Flash Player plugin.exe is not found

    Hello

    Since a few days Flash Player gives me an error message saying "C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Flash Player\Addons\plugin.exe is not found.

    Please make sure you typed the name correctly and repeat the process. " every time you start. (error message may not be 100% reliable, I had to translate it from German).

    Apart from this, the Flash Player plugin (version latest btw) works perfectly well. I did reinstall a full Flash Player + Flash plugin, but I get the error message

    whenever I start my PC. What happens here?

    Oh and I'm under Win 7 x 64 Service Pack 1 btw.

    Looks like your system is compromised. What created this 'plugins' folder (index: it wasn't Adobe - I have Flash Player XP, Win 7 and two 2 Win 8 machines, and NONE of them has such a record) is causing the error message because it allows most likely spyware via Flash.

  • Adobe Flash Player Plugin MSI is a version behind

    Lately I noticed that the MSI for Adobe Flash Player Plugin pack is a version or 2 behind.

    The .exe file is updated but the MSI is still to 11.5.502.146 while it is in 11.6.602.168. Person is unclear what could be the problem?

    Thanks, appreciated.

    Hi Joshua,.

    The MSI package contains the most recent version and are posted here for download: http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html.  Can you post the URL you use to download the MSI package that is several versions behind?

  • Is there a page of archive for the Flash Player plugins for PORTABLE versions of the web browsers?

    Is there a page of archive for downloads installers for Flash Player plugin for PORTABLE versions of web browsers like Firefox ESR?

    One of my web browsers is Firefox ESR 10.0.7 and is a PORTABLE of Firefox version that apparently needs a different Flash Player plugin that the plugin Flash Player normal requiring regular versions of most web browsers.

    I don't want to install the most recent PORTABLE Flash Player plugin version because I read about the problems with it and it is the only capable version this ESR Firefox will give me the opportunity to download and install when I try to install the plugin Flash Player necessary through the browser.

    I already know about the page archive plugin Adobe Flash Player normal, below, the link, but who don't have the Flash Player plugins for MOBILE web browsers.

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/Flash-Player/KB/archived-Flash-Player-versions.html

    I also looked on OldApps.com and I couldn't find anything there.

    Where can I download an older version, maybe one of the plugins Flash Player 11.2 to round April 2012, that will work with this version of PORTABLE Firefox ESR?

    I tried this question in the forum of Mozilla Firefox Help, but no one could answer.

    Thanks for any help,

    I met the same problem with the version of portable Firefox, I've tried.  I found myself ignoring the record (with the text file) that they have provided and created my own folder 'plugins' alongside firefox executable.

    As to why I went with 10.3 11.4, it was mainly because we added in Flash Player 11.3 protected mode.  While this might work (it didn't on my first attempt), it adds a layer of complexity that I didn't want to face.  If you need some of the new features of 11.x, then you have to play with it to see if you can get this to work.  One thing to try would be to modify the mms.cfg by disabling the protected-mode, however, I do not know if this file is accessible outside your windows\system32\macromed\flash folder.

    You can find all versions of 10.3 here: where can I find direct downloads of Flash Player 10.3 for Windows or Macintosh?

  • Flash Player plugin that displays the output window?

    Hey there,

    I remember reading about a Flash Player plugin that shows the output window when mistakes happen, but don't remember the link or where I read about it.

    Does it exist or did I did it upward?  I would use it if it can be useful when testing on Flash you can hear it on the web.  If someone has a link to find out where to download it from the adobe site that would be of great stuff.

  • Flash Player Plugin 9.0.45 not install MSI

    I downloaded the new MSI Flash Player Plugin [9.0.45] on the site of redistribution license and set up as a Group Policy object as I did with previous versions of flash player. Once it is configured as a GPO and I restart a client, it does not install the new version. I loaded the MSI in Orca and ran the msi validation. An error pops up after validation is executed which says "ProductCode: '{685A56F8-75B6-44AD-B3DA-FB0A3266B47C}' is an invalid GUID Windows Installer." I don't get this error on the previous Flash Player Plugin MSI or previous versions or the latest version of the Flash Player ActiveX MSIs, so it seems that is what is causing the problem. The interesting thing to note is that the ProductCode for the 9.0.45 plug-in version is the same ProductCode as the 9.0.28 ActiveX version. Was the wrong code used in the MSI Plugin 9.0.45?

    Hi jbeyette@esm,

    I downloaded the Flash Player plugin MSI (9.0.45.0) and verified that it is the correct Product Code:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\ {B91D3B4D-001F-4ABF - B8A5-B5A926DB63AD}

  • Obsolete blocking message - Flash Player Plugin between 11.0 and 11.7.700.169 (click-to-play) has been blocked for your protection.

    I can't play Flash videos on any Web site using Firefox 35.0.1

    The latest version of Shockwave Flash is 16.0.0.296 from 2015-02-12.

    The deadlock message is obsolete, because it refers to a set of versions of Flash much earlier.
    All versions of Flash has a vulnerability, or are there some that are actually clean (for more than a few seconds)?

    Can someone fix the deadlock message to reflect the real reason for blocking?

    Where can I find a version that is not vulnerable, or is it a utopia?

    Because 16.0.0. 296 is not aware, because it is vulnerable to exploits criticism proved in nature. The 16.0.0 Flash Player. 305 and 13.0.0. 269 ESR are the current versions of Windows/Mac OSX since Feb 4/5.

    https://addons.Mozilla.org/en-us/Firefox/blocked/

    More updates Adobe Flash Player are for reasons of security and stability fixes. However before December 9, Mozilla is not added all versions of Flash to the red list since the beginning of 2013. The reason now is because critical exploits that is in older versions (not with corrections) and Adobe tried to fix with five updates for 16.0 Flash itself since 9 dec. Mozilla only adds Extensions and Plugins versions to list when it is security, stability or malware.

    As to why some receive the old Flash 11 blocklisting I can't say.
