just got a new laptop, toshiba portege m200, and its great, except for the fact that it seems to refuse to play flash. i cant seem to download it from the internet as it is, because it wont dl from the macromedia website for some reason. tried downloads.com and i thought i got it, but i guess not. it still will not play flash. any ideas guys? thanks for the help!

hehe it will if he installs it and then runs the little 'get plugins' option and install flash/etc.

I had problems with IE after someoen loaded SP2 on my laptop with security settings that wouldn't let FLASH stuff play unless I manually accepted it. Hasn't happened since I reinstalled my OS on my laptop cause of a new drive.
