First it doesn't work great in Netscape.

I see you corrected the bad HTML code that prevented Netscape Flash but

the MIME is still not set for Flash so many people will not see your

site.

See http://www.FlashCentral.com/Tech/Server/index.htm

I would have responded earlier but your site crashed my Netscape

browser.


There are three problems you could have with IE3/IE4 Win 95/98/NT.

First if the browser does not have the Authenticode 2.0 Update then

security must be set to none to install a plugin (some IE3 and Beta

IE4).

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/security/?/ie/security/authent2.htm


Second if the security is set to High instead of Normal or None then the

plugin cannot be installed until the Security is lowered. (IE3 and IE4).


Third if using Aftershock you may have to manually modify the HTML code.
