| 78941 | 2002-09-12 12:25:00 | Hi all, great forum, have learnt a lot browsing the pages for the last few weeks. I have found a page I like that I would like to use for my homepage or desktop wallpaper. It requires Macromedia Flash Player 5 and I have gone through the usual steps of allowing it to be seen offline and set as my current homepage, also allowing active desktop. I seems to work for awhile, but after only a few hours, it needs to be downloaded from the site again or synchronized. Is there anyway I can get it to stay on my desktop without the IE6 window being present? In file option, the save and save as options are grayed out. Has anyone saved a Flash Player Page to their desktop or homepage successfully? |

However this may be harder than you first think, as you'll have to locate the file being used by the Active desktop first (I don't know where it is or what it's called off the top of my head).
