Dear Aran, Thanks for the link and the post. Yes, on IE, that page you mentioned says I have flash version 0.0.0 installed (obviously incorrect). However, that said, is there a way to combine the dynamic and static publishing methods? It seems a common problem that the flash install can be corrupted (it's the reason I moved away from using SWF Object in the first place), and I can't expect the users on my website to follow those instructions. I'd either like to find a way to gracefully degrade to the static model if the dynamic fails, or I will have to find another solution for embedding flash content.
