    Problem Playing Flash Games

    Some IT geek from our Leeds office was fiddling around with my computer for 2 hours yesterday.

    Now its Friday afternoon. I have no motivation to do any work. I have put my phone on 'no calls'. And i have tried loading up few of these games but none of them work.

    They worked prior to him being on my comp yesterday.

    Basically the site loads up, but then the window where the game should be is blank, bar a funny symbol in the corner. Ive tried downlaoding the flash plugin thingy, but it doesnt seem to do anything when i click 'install now'.

    Any ideas?

    Other wise i may have to resort to work. :(

    In fact, the computer is struggling with a few things. When i click 'Get More' on the smilies selection thing, it says 'Error on Page'. :evil:

    might be your security settings in IE... go to Tools > Internet Options, turn them down a bit... click apply and reboot

    Everthing seems to be set to 'enable' or 'prompt' so it should download ok id have thought.

    Maybe its a problem with the macromedia site.

    Might have to try again Monday.
