Hello, I've run into a bit of trouble with Flash Cs5 and Flash 8.
I got up this morning, switched on my laptop, opened up flash cs5, and clicked on my doors entry to work on.
But when I clicked it, Flash suddenly stopped responding. I tried this multiple times, with no success. After this, I attempted to open up Macromedia flash 8, and the same thing happened to that as well.
Later, I searched on Google for any possible answers, but didn't find anything that helped me, I also tried re-installing it, but the same thing happened. I'm not quite sure what happened, because this just started this morning, and I haven't been able to fix it.

Here's a picture of the problem: http://i.imgur.com/wH9AcrB.png

I would be really grateful for any advice of help you guys could give.
Regards, Spectre

Try this:

1) Quit all adobe apps plus browsers that may use adobe plugins
2) Remove it first by removing the app, then go into the library in your user account and find the folder Application Support and look for Adobe. You could delete that whole folder, although you might just want to move or rename it in case you want to keep settings to Photoshop and stuff.
3) Then goto /Library/Application Support and look again at Adobe and do the same.

Then start Flash and see what happens.
