"Download Popups?"
Posted by Jims02 on 09-25-03 at 01:50 PM
I'm getting a popup that I need to download this Micromedia Flash 7 thingy to view this site, every time I go to a webpage.I can obviously view this site. I was just wondering if anyone else was getting it/have any suggestions.

Macromedia Flash is probably the most standard browser plugin there is -- probably 90% of web browsers have it. As such, many banners ads are designed as Macromedia Flash files.If you're seeing that message when viewing a webpage, odds are the webpage is trying to display a banner ad that uses Flash.

Thanks, Webby.I'm really wary of anonymous downloads.
