I have installed SP2 and everything seems fine... however if I go to macromedia.com or some other sites that uses Flash detection it wont show the flash.

But if I go to a site that just has flash in the document, it shows fine... so it's not an issue with Active-X...

Any suggestions...

Just wondering, are you able to view http://www.kirupa.com? I use a flash detection script on the home page. I am guessing you are able to view Flash animations on the forum without any issues.

When I go to kirupa.com it says to install Flash (takes me to http://www.kirupa.com/noflash2.htm)

But if I go to forums I can see the flash nav at the top and so on...

Ok - try to see what happens when you visit this site: http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash It may update your Flash player, but I am not sure why the redirects are causing an issue for you. Have you tried adjusting your Internet Security settings?

Go to Tools | Internet Options. Click the tab for Security and press the Custom Level button. Try to ensure that you have Medium selected in the drop-down menu, and/or press the Reset button to rest your security settings.

I've got the newest Flash Plugin 7,0,19,0


It will play on most sites, but for Macromedia's homepage, kirupa's homepage, and a few others that use flash redirect..

I have no idea why it isn't working then :( There may be some setting that is preventing your computer from sending data about whether you have the Flash Player or not, but I hope that the other, more security-savvy people have a solution for you!

my flash detect is working correctly...perhaps try to clear your cache and then reload the pages?

also uninstall the flash plugin and reinstall it.
