can't upload a picture in internet explorer

In Firefox, I get the warning about photo upload not supported in FF but I get the same error when I try it in Internet Explorer. Bug?

In Chrome, it doesn't work because I don't have a flash player installed for that browser. I *do* have a flash player installed in IE.

Flash in built-in to Chrome, although you might have turned it off or set it to require an extra click to run it.

Yes, semantically you are correct. For Chrome I should have said "not enabled" instead of "not installed". But I don't want to go off on a tangent from my main question. Photo upload is not working in IE.

I suppose there's a chance the two are related. Since I don't have flash installed in IE, perhaps that's triggering the error message about not being able to upload. That might be a stretch, though, because the error I get in Chrome says is specific to flash. If it's not installed in IE, I expected the same error.
