Win2KSP4. I'm logged in as an Administrator. Internet zone allows
download, init and play for ActiveX controls. But Flash Player doesn't
install. Adobe.com has hundreds of pages of text but nothing helps. I
downloaded and ran their SubInACL info. What else is there left to try?
TIA
 
Hello Stubby,

What error message do you get? Check also the event viewer.

Best regards

No error messages!
Nothing in Event Viewer. I installed Adobe Reader 8 and I see those
successful completion events.
I would like to check the access SYSTEM has to various directories but I
have forgotten how.

You might want to try installing Adobe AIR. I think that it includes
flash player with it.

Adobe AIR is a cross-operating system runtime that lets developers
combine HTML, Ajax, Adobe Flash®, and Flex technologies to deploy rich
Internet applications (RIAs) on the desktop. Adobe AIR allows developers
to use familiar tools such as Adobe Dreamweaver® CS3, Flex® Builder™ 3,
Flash CS3 Professional, or any text editor to build their applications
and easily deliver a single application installer that works across
operating systems.

How does Adobe AIR compare to Flash Player?

Adobe Flash Player is a browser plug-in that provides advantages for
users and content creators in the browser, including the ability to
deliver RIAs in the browser. Adobe AIR incorporates technologies
originally developed in Flash Player and enables rich Internet
applications on the desktop. Adobe AIR and Flash Player provide
complementary deployment methods for the RIAs.

Hope it helps.
