Meanwhile I did go back to a snapshot from 2008 of this machine - but even now, neither manual install using install_flash_player_32bit.exe nor via wpkg works. Installation shows "100% - Fertig" and it's not there. Really strange, but not essential ... I can wait for next flash_player 11 version :) Best regards and have a nice weekend Falko |
