I"m using IE 7. Under manage add-ons I can enable and disable shockwave flash
object but I can't delete it. I would like to delete it and reinstall it
thinking that might get it working again. I go to
http://www.2kgames.com/railroads/noflash.htm and am ask to download latest
flash
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFl
ash. I've done that now a few times but still flash won't play. If someone
can help me out here that would be great.

same damn problem I was probably having...When using IE and deleting temporary
internet files it disables/corrupts/removes proper function of the adobe flash
player....You can reinstall all night long and it will claim a "successful"
installation but, it is not....YOU MUST FIRST UNINSTALL ADOBE FLASH PLAYER
USING THE ONLY TOOL THAT WILL DO THIS WHICH IS THE FLASH PLAYER UNINSTALLER
FROM THE ADOBE WEBSITE....BE SURE AND SAVE IT TO YOUR DESKTOP BECAUSE YOU WILL
BE USING IT FOREVER.....Once you have used the uninstaller program you can then
successfully and truthfully download the latest adobe flash player.......WILL
SOMEBODY FROM ADOBE FIX THIS!........[/B]

[B]There seems to be an "object" in the temporary files object folder that is
NECESSARY for proper Adobe Flash function?..see for yourself...tools-internet
options-General-Settings-then click view objects.....here it is:

{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000}

When you clean out your temporary files this goes with it and your flash will
NOT operate...you can try and reinstall it all night long...your
dead...nothing....you must FIRST GO TO THE ADOBE UNINSTALLER and run that
program to uninstall COMPLETELY the flash....Having done that, you can now
install the flash and this time it will take......

Let me know the results???..[/B]
