Hmm....Firefox and IE both work for me. Maybe it's something to do with your browser configuration? That would explain quite a bit.

Like what? I'm really confused as to what it could be.

Disabling third-party plugins?

I haven't got any installed that would do anything to flash. I've disabled all my popup/ad clearing programs and the same thing happens.

Hmmm......msgplus.net flash is fine, so it has to be something on your end. Have you disabled turned down your internet security settings?

Still doesn't work. I've tried clearing my cache and hitting refresh. I've tried undoing all my Spyware Blaster and Spybot settings (you'd understand if you had that program).

what plugins do you have for firefox?

Er guys i think you've all missed it

msgplus.net uses a javascript-based flash sniffer.  If javascript is disabled, the <noscript> content comes into play, and in this case it's the same content as if the sniffer found that flash wasn't installed.

Why the hell no one told me about this?

Sorry for being so late

Exactly

What's most likely happening in these cases is that either Javascript is disabled or SP2 (or something else, in Lopardo's case) is blocking that javascript code which detects Flash.

I never ran into this problem, not even when installing SP2... don't you remember if you discarded some "infobar" message that allowed you to disable the javascript blocking for this page?

Anyway, thank you all for reporting it... do you still have this problem? If you have a firewall (other than Windows Firewall) can you try disabling it, etc.?

Guido, nothing was blocking the Javascript or Flash in my case, I don't know why it suddenly stopped working (I haven't had changed anything), I fixed it reinstalling the Flash player for Firefox...
