i think setting up your own proxy for express install would be way more trouble than it's worth...

you'd have to have every plugin version and do platform sniffing and return the correct plugin for each platform.. then when adobe updates the Flash player, you'll have to update all your stuff... it wouldn't be very much fun.

it sounds to me like the DNS hasn't propagated across to some of your DNS servers yet.

so as a temporary fix, you could try replacing the fpdownload.macromedia.com in the express install code with the ip address of the server (make sure you get the ip address from a computer that the install works on)

i don't recommend this as a permanent fix, but it might work until adobe takes care of their DNS issues.

you should also try e-mailing someone over there - the flash developer relations person (i'm not sure who that is anymore) and see if they have any insight into the problem.

Adobe still hasn't fixed the problem (it seems to be coming from them anyway) which is preventing me and others from other parts of the country (and world) from being able to download the Flash Player using the express install feature (or simply trying to download it direct from their site). However, when I use our remote server to get it, not from my own personal broadband connection, there is no problem. Does anyone (Geoff Stearns, perhaps?) know how I could rig up the express install code to use our server as a proxy?
