I'm not sure but I think the Google rules that you refer to pertain mainly if you post your pictures as Public Albums. You can also make your Google album, albums or individual pictures private at the time of uploading and there-after only those you have have sent an invitation to that

That looks like a good direction for troubleshooting. First clear out any and all preference settings and registry entries. If that fails I would try a complete uninstall of all all Shockwave components followed with a fresh install. You should be able to find a tech note at Adobe on these
