I've been having this same problem as long as i've had a computer. When I click
the download button, no security window pops up and nothing downloads, it just
switches to the next web page saying it's been downloaded but no flash stuff
works. I've searched the computer and found a macromed folder with a flash
folder in it, but no real programs, just a get Flash button and some other non
importants. What the hecks goin on?!:mad;:confused;

im having the same problem and i did the same thing you did so what is going on and how do i fix it??????

I have been trying to respond to a website that tells me I need to install
Flash media player. I have tried and tried and tried to download the flash
media player but it will not happen. Can anyone tell me what is wrong. I
can't access the business web site because I can't download the Flash Media
player. Help !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have windows 98SE. New hardrive...I cannot download macromedia flash player
either. I click on download....there is no picture, just a blank box with an x
in the top left corner. No text and no movie and nothing to let me know if
download was successful or not. I can't play msn video highlights without this
program.

Does anybody else have these file locations for ActiveX folders?
1. C:/Program Files/Adobe/Acrobat 5.0/Reader
2. C:/Program Files/Adobe/Acrobat 7.0
3. C:/Program Files/Common Files/Nullsoft
4. C:/Program Files/Common Files/Nullsoft/Video
5. C:/Program Files/Las Vegas Casino/Xtras
6. C:/Windows/java/Packages/X7PJRBH7/com/ms

I have the same problem and thought it was me but the more I think about it,
It's the web site maybe it's a way for them to get us to buy, really they don't
give out free things. The sad thing is we can't watch news clips. :(

What do we do when that fails?

I am becoming so frustrated with not being able to download this. I've tried
everything. i downloaded flashplayer 6 like somebody said to do, but that
dodn't work. every website told me i had an old version of flashplayer! i
really wish somebody would fix this!!!

Same here!!! grr. I already installed the Flash Player standalone
installer, it installed normally, but when ever i try and download flash
player 8.... Nothing happens!!! i really need it to get into a website, my
husband is in the Marines and he cant do his course work with out it!!!!
someone must know how to fix it!

OMG i'm a genius and i fixed it heres what you do!!!!!!.....
On you browser go to "tools" then click "manage add ons" flash player 8 will
be listed and probably say blocked.. mine did so i simply unblocked it then re
downloaded it and it worked like a charm!! yay for the simple minded non
computer geniuses who figure stuff out on accident!! lol

I cant download either when I goto download via the button on the main page at
www.adobe.com that says "Get adobe flash player" it takes me to this web page
