flash 7 vs flash 10

[tiagosgd]

Hello.
I have one software that only works with flash 7. But with flash 7 I cannot watch movies in youtube (for example) in internet explorer or I cannot use correctly windows live mail.

I tried use Google Chrome and there youtube works well. Because I done this:
1. Download the .xpi file:

http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/xpi/current/flashplayer-win.xpi

2. Then rename it to .zip. It’s a special archive file of only the plug-in bit of the flash player app from adobe that interacts with your browser.
3. Extract it with Winzip to a place you’ll remember.
4. Grab the flashplayer.xpt and NPSWF32.dll files. Copy them (Right click, copy)
5. Head to C/”YOUR USER NAME”/AppData/Google/Chrome/Application/Plugins/ and copy your files in there.
With this the software works with flash 7 (installed in system32/flash) and google chrome with flash 10 (installed in plugins folder).

But my windows live mail, messenger and internet explorer gave me problems... ask me to install flash 10, etc...

What can I do?

How can I have two different versions?
Thank you.
Tiago

I don't think you can use multiple versions of Flash Player on IE.

On Firefox you could use something like this:
