Whenever I TRY to install Macromedia flash player 8, I get this message:

("Directory not found"

Setup could not find your browsers PLUGINS directory

Click Browse and locate the plugins directory

To install this directory, click install

And for the destination, it set to: C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\F...

End of instruction page.)

So I click install - and it does a short 1 sec install and disappears into thin AIR, it does nothing more. So I go to the directory where its supposedly at - and the only file there is this: ("NPSWF32.dll 8.0.24.0 Shockwave Flash 8.0 r24")

And thats the only file it shows.

I don't want to install Adobe, but just can't understand what the issue is, because it puts the folders in my computer, but I visit a flash content site and I get a prompt TELLING me to install Adobe.

I have 2 SITES in which both have the same issues when I try to download the flash player.


Please help me,

Thanks,

Nick
