Shockwave won't work for Vista 64

10-01-2007

After getting a strange, meaningless error message, I chased down the system
requirements for the Shockwave Flash Player:

Only Vista 32 is on their list! And Vista has been available to developers
for almost two years now! Time to move to someone else.

I too would like to see this work but I found if you go to foxfire it all
works. Only internet explorer will not work with it. Guess we'll all have
to move to fox fire since IE seems to be pretty useless at several sites
requiring these add ons.

What's "fox fire"? LOL

On to the actual topic, yes, it's pretty lame that at this point there are a
number of items out there that have issues with 64 bit versions of both XP
(more excusable I suspose since it's use was pretty limited) and Vista.
