I cannot use my winks!

O.P. Huh?  I cannot use my winks!
[font=Arial][size=1][color=purple]Since downloading Message Plus to my MSN Messenger (7.5), I can no longer use my winks! When I try to use them I just get a message about needing to have the latest version of Macromedia Flash (which I already have). They worked previously. My mum is having the same problem. I have Windows XP.
Please help!

RE: I cannot use my winks!
I don't think this is Plus! related as i already had it installed and i got that very same message too all of a sudden when receiving a wink (and winks always worked).

Just install it when it prompts you, it will be a one time thing.

I already did just to be sure, but as I said, I already had the latest version.

Can you see the wink? .

Please note that you must install Flash Player using Internet Explorer for winks to function correctly in Messenger.

Yea well, no harm will be done. It'll just make your winks work again...maybe something microsoft did on their msn servers made us receive that message (they have been doing alot on their servers lately).

Yes I can see a picture of it, but it doesn't actually play! I did use Internet Explorer to install it.

If it doesnt play then your flash isnt downloaded properly. Do you have admin rights on your PC?

But it hasn't made them work! And I've tried numerous times!

Maybe I'll try uninstalling Flash and re-installing it first. Then if that doesn't work I'll try doing the same with msgplus!
Thanks anyway.
