#FIREFOX FLASH PLUGIN BUG UPDATE#
The process is the same for Vista and the update should still work the same, as long as you run it as Administrator. This works great for XP users but not sure of the Vista users. Doing the update as described above fixed the problem, and updated it to version 10b. Version 10a does NOT automatically update, but version 10b includes this fix. In the system32 folder the updater is built into Adobe. It doesn't recognize that the folder or files that it needs in it, exist. There also appears to be a bug/reference problem with the installation of Internet Explorer 8 giving the error "Missing Shockwave Decompression XTRA", when trying to play a Shockwave/Flash file, which seems also to affect Firefox and other browsers. This fix should work for those of you whom cannot view/see flash images as well. They included this bug fix in revision 10b. Going directly to the website and downloading a new version of Adobe Flash Player, and installing, doesn't uninstall the older version, (though it says it does) nor does it fix the problem. (For Vista users your folder order will be Computer > C: Drive > Windows > System32 > Macromed > Flash for Vista)
