OS X and Flash, They are having ownership issues

So last weekend I was at my parent's house and was on my dad's iMac and noticed I couldn't watch a YouTube video on one of the sites I visit. Annoyed, I installed it only to find out a week later my dad got the Quicktime logo with a question mark behind it on any site where flash was embedded.

After a few google searches, I finally found something off Adobe that came in handy. Sure enough it was some strange permissioning issue and I wasn't the only one effected. Reinstalling it didn't help. I had to run the Disk Utility application in the "Application\Utilities" directory. On the "First Aid" tab, run the "Repair Disk Permissions" button. After that, reinstall Flash.

Bada-bing, it was fixed and one parent is quieted until another computer breaks in the parental Rutkas household.
