I want to wathc NBC news and it sends me to down load flash player i do all the
necesarry steps and it says install it again ???
What am i doing wrong I am down loaning the trial version as we speak>>>

damir: are you talking about the standalone player? if so, in order to view
online content from the player, you need to include the very specific URL that
leads to the swf file. so http://www.mydomain.com will not work but
http://www.mydomain.com/flashcontent.swf will work (of course you need an
active internet connection as well).

also, make sure you have the latest version of the player, because some older
versions may not play the latest content correctly. not sure where you can
download the latest standalone player, but do a search on the adobe site for
"standalone flash player for mac" or something...

Ie/win uses the active x control flash player, all other browsers use
the ns compatible plug-in--so you would need to install two players to view
flash in both browsers. -Tom Unger

Ok, if I have the Adobe Flash player installed, why doesn't IE view the content?

Also, how do you determine which player would be compatible? I thought the
Adobe Flash player was compatible with Firefox.
