Problems with old installs of Adobe Macromedia; Flashplayer & Shockwave
Seem to have some files for aboves in various places to other.
None are under "Program files", all except 2 are under Windows/Application date. Also under there is Adobe & Spybot (Spybot is also under Program files)

The 2 not under there are under Windows/Downloaded Program files. They are 2 shockwave files (Shockwave Flash object 32 KB installed, & other, whole lot of numbers, says status unknown, created none. )
Do some downloads just go automatically under Applic data????

Going to do new updated downloads for Macromedia.
When I install should I put them under program files (presuming it gives me a choice.)
:confused:

Just update them.

538795 2007-04-07 11:30:00 It depends whether the target browser is Netscape based (eg, Firefox) or IE. Firefox for instance gets all its plugins like Flash and Shockwave put into its plugins folder. Just grab the installers and keep default target folders, etc.

538797 2007-04-08 22:29:00 Go here (www.adobe.com)

If you're using FF/Opera/Netscape/Mozilla, it'll let you install it.

Its the same place for IE. Paste the link (or if u use IE, click on the link above).

It'll show a different screen for IE.
