Mac OS Classic Flash Player 7r70 is an OS X File

[Fatal Claws]

Adobe, the newest Mac OS Classic version of Flash Player (7r70) available from
http://www.adobe.com/go/d9c2fe33 is an OS X package file which does not contain
a Classic Mac OS compatible Flash plugin. Please post the correct version so
Classic Mac OS users can have the security benefits of Flash Player 7r70.

Thank you.

Would've been nice if someone from Adobe had explained what is going on. Oh well, typical corporate behavior nowadays.

Hello,
I installed Flash Player version 7r70 that was included in a TechNote titled
"Flash Player upgrade for operating systems that do not support Flash Player 8."

This script alert is appearing when I am NOT viewing a Flash Movie in a
Macromedia Flash Player Environment.

It is happening whenever I start to access my email on Netscape 7.0.

The problem started when I installed Flash Player version 7r70 on my Macintosh
PowerBook G3 (Mac OS9.1).

I installed version 7r70 because I thought that it was compatible with OS9.1.
It looks like I was very wrong!

I need help to get ride of this script, or to uninstall this version of Flash
Player and revert to the older version that did not have this issue.

Do you have any information that might help me to solve this problem?

I have also posted a new topic and sent a bug report to Adobe (do they reply?).

Thank you very much.

Hi Blancawing,

This message usually comes when a single script continues to run for 15
seconds or longer. Typically a problem caused in the development of the SWF.
The message gives viewers the option to end the script helps the Flash Player
prevent an SWF file from freezing the viewer's browser or system indefinitely.

Is there any Flash content when you access email on Netscape 7.0.? Does your
homepage have any Flash content?

You can uninstall Flash Player using the following:

Hi Darren,

Please excuse my ignorance, but I do not know what a SWF file is.

I saw the message from Adobe today. However, I had already installed version
7r70 based on their earlier TechNote.

I use google.com as my homepage, but I have it set up so that when Netscape
starts up, Mail opens and my new messages start to download. I need to click
on Navigator to access Google. It does not start up automatically. The script
appears when Netscape starts up and tries to download my new mail. I do not
think that there is any flash content when I access my email.

I am concerned that if I uninstall the Flash Player, I will not be able to
download and install a version that will function compatibly with my old
PowerBook G3 that is not capable of running OSX without problems. I am running
OS9.1, and I only have 512MB of ram and an 8GB hard drive.

Is there a way to get rid of the script by deleting a specific folder or
file? I saw a new document titled "settings.sol" that is dated on the day that
I installed version 7r70.

Thank you so much for your help!

Best regards,

Blanche Wingate (aka Blancawing)
