Second day without Flash

[Lost User]

No.. it just kept misbehaving (enabling "Launch at Startup"-s that I disabled etc), and I couldn't convince Windows Defender that the changes were not being made by a "trusted" application but by an application that is in fact not trusted at all

Maybe you should upgrade to Microsoft Security Essentials? :)

Yea I'd like to but I can't, they don't support my OS, and "don't support" means "actively refuses to install"

I went years without flash or at least I had flashblock on giving me the choice to allow flash if I wanted.

It installs on XP, Vista and 7 so you're using something older than that?...Millennium?...'98?

Me too, the most efective one: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility\{D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000}] "Compatibility Flags"=dword:00000400* * - yes I use IE, hate me.

XP x64

[DaveX86]

"Operating System: Genuine Windows XP (Service Pack 2 or Service Pack 3); Windows Vista (Gold, Service Pack 1, or Service Pack 2); Windows 7" ...doesn't specifically say no XP 64 in the System Requirements [^]

That may be so but I tried it and it failed.. edit: see http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en/msestart/thread/b036dc3f-2ccd-4262-9885-edfd90e9fbca[^]

I not only have the plugin installed, but I've actually started to learn flash: http://aspdotnetdev.com/DevPortfolio/flash/SimpleBallBounce/index.html

Note: not that you'll be able to see the fruits of my labor. :laugh:
