Matt, I have an issue also related to flash8 activeX control and the Flash Player team are looking at it. They also told me to follow those steps and nothing worked.
We deploy MSI with M$ SMS system because users don't have previlege to install the player. They all had FP7 deployed with SMS with no problem. When SMS deploys FP8, it uninstalls FP7. After that, no common popup opens ever again (even plain html with no flash content).If we rollback to FP7, starts working. They guy had to breeze-it to prouve that none of us was dreaming. I don't know if it's the activeX or IE himself that is messing up but we can't use other browser since it's the company choice.

But here's what I do: Close IE (in fact close all your browsers for kicks) Close Explorer, do not have any windows open showing folders that could potentially embed IE Open up a command shell (Start > Run > cmd) cd c:\windows\system32\Macromed\Flash regsvr32 /u Flash.ocx (this should disable the installed Flash Player for IE, a dialog will say if it was successful) If this fails you may want to reboot your computer and not launch any IE or Explorer window before trying the above steps again. Launch IE, see what happens, go to a Flash page and see if install works. If install fails to work you can close things down and try to enable the OCX via windows. regsvr32 Flash.ocx (from the same directory as before, a dialog will say if it was successful) Matt ________________________________ From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Robert Thompson Sent: Thursday, October 27, 2005 2:03 PM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Big problem with OCX, Flash 8 release version Not yet, but I have to, this is my production workstation and I have clients I have to get things done for. The uninstall works fine and Firefox, Netscape and _Yes_ EVEN OPERA (which is more like IE) works now...but IE does not. I mean, given all the issues with IE which have included the ability for MS to obtain all your FAVORITES when you visit microsoft.com, and many other issues, I'm very suspect; not 100% sure, but suspect. If anyone else knows how to fix this I'd appreciate it. -r ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Get Bzzzy! (real tools to help you find a job).
