OK, so something I have never understood about Flash player installation and Internet Explorer.
I have a co-worker who has 9,0,28,0 installed, verified in Internet Explorer 6: Tools > Settings> Internet Options > View Objects. I have 9,0,28,0 installed, verfied by going to: http://www.macromedia.com/software/flash/about/ and seeing the version shown (unless that site is lying to me). However, I cannot see my Flash player 9 object like my co-worker can by going to Internet Explorer 6:Tools > Settings> Internet Options > View Objects. I can however see Flash sites just fine (including Flash 9 Flex sites) as can my co-worker. Why is that? The issue for us is we have a third party Flash player wrapper (Ice player) running in the browser, and the files that run with that work fine for my co-worker, but not for me. We seen to have the same Flash player installation, just not in the same location? This seems to be why the third party Flash player wrapper (both my co-worker and I have the same install, there is only one version of it) does not work for me but works for my co-worker. Can Flash player get installed in a different location? Also, if you have time for a bonus question, how does Adobe's Flash player auto-update work? How can Adobe update the Flash player without my permission? Is auto-update somehow related to my issue? I have also seen times on Adobe's site where it indicated I did not have the Flash player installed, even though I did and could view other Flash sites just fine. Is my registry just hosed or something? How can I clean up this mess?
