I'm not sure what you've got there, but I know the Flash 3 engine came out

before the original Win95 CDs did, and if memory serves then the old

IE4/Win32 browser CDs may have been concurrent with the old Flash 2.0

Players.


If they install Win98 or NT4 or IE5 then they'll have the current Flash

Player installed. Might this be the cause of those enduser reports...?
