I've spent the better part of 2 days trying to download Macromedia flash and shockwave players. It's been a round robin of go here, then there and always end up back in the same spot...download won't happen. I doublechecked the files here on compting.net and followed advice...searched thro windows, Macromedia and other adivce columns....NOTHING WORKS! I was trying to get the Disney games for my grands and -0- shows up. whatever am I doing wrong - or where to go to find out....thanks youall

You can go here: http://www.macromedia.com/

and download both Flash Player and Shockwave Player. After that you should have no problems playing flash or shockwave files. They should run automatically.

mlbauer, Do you have a pop-up stopper program or SpywareBlaster/SpywareGuard installed. If you do some of these programs have a setting to disable Flash which you must turn off. Also if you have a Firewall disable it then try to download & install FlashPlayer & Shockwave.

Ok, go to this site. It lists numerous support links about uninstalling and installing flash player. Be sure and read the one entitled "Uninstalling flash player" - download the uninstall utility and run it and then try downloading and installing the Flast player.
