O.P. Undecided  Flash Player
I installed Macromedia Flash Player 8, and when i go to the home page of Messenger Plus, it says that i need Flash Player 7 to view enhanced content... I've tried on other flash sites, and it works fine... I tried to install it again from macromedia, but it sayed that it's allready installed...
What can be the problem?

P.S.: Another site doesent work, http://ww.rush.com/ It says that i need Flash Player Plugin to view the enhanced content.

Thanks

In an unprecedented move, Microsoft has issued a critical advisory urging users to apply a critical update from Flash Player update from Macromedia.

The vulnerability first reported by eEye Digital Security and Sec Consult, can allow malicious parties to inject unauthorized code, using invalid array indexes, to be executed by Flash Player. This vulnerability is browser independent. Users who have already upgraded to Flash Player 8 are not affected by this issue. Macromedia recommends all Flash Player 7 and earlier users upgrade to this new version, which can be downloaded from the Macromedia Player Download Center.

Several forums including Neowin.net allow users to add flash files in their avatars or signatures. Therefore the impact of this issue is far reaching.

There's security issue regarding Flash 7, so I wouldn't advise this. Try downloading and reinstalling the latest version. http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflash

You can download the latest version of Player 7 (with the vulnerability fixed) here...

(It's meant to be used for older versions of Windows that don't support version 8, but it will work fine on XP)
