There's just been a point release of Flash CS3 Professional (one of the reasons I have a Windows box is to run Adobe Creative Suite 3 Design Premium). Either as part of that, or as a related project, Adobe have issued Flash Player 9 Update 3 - version 9.0.115.0. I suspect that the old distribution file has been withdrawn at the same time. http://tinyurl.com/39co9f has the release notes (found via the Flash CS3 release notes on my Windows machine). In other words - the port needs updating for the new Flash Player. Best wishes, David -- David Wood david@wood2.org.uk
