Flash 9.0.151.0

This adds the same security fixes that was applied to flash player 10.

isnt that the version that has the bug in it, that allows someone to run malicous code on your machine?

bit of a stickler for what versions you use arent you? (as in still using 98 also)

:D

Both the IE and Firefox plugin seem to work for me. This also seems to have fixed the quality issues that version 124 and 115 had with some sites using Firefox 2.X.

Flash 151 installed on IE6, FF2.0.0.17 and Opera 9.27 and seems to work fine on my 98SE and 98SE2ME boxes.
I have not come across sites so far that displays problems with this new version but testing time has been limited.
Thanks for the link blackwire.

Both IE and Firefox, and also Opera and Maxthon 2.1 work perfect.

Thank you!

Unfortunately this new version of Flash breaks U.B. Funkeys. My kids hate me now :-(

Don't worry: Adobe offers a full collection of previous versions you can download (but it's a quite big file). So it's possible to fall back to the previous version of your choice (but don't forget to uninstall the current version before installing the older one). Find them here. Enjoy!

Has anyone tested Nir Sofer's old TurnFlash with this new version of Flash?
Personally I keep Flash disabled by default using the above tool and I wonder if it still works with 9.0.151.0 - I'd hate to waste time uninstalling and reinstalling Flash if TurnFlash doesn't work anymore.

Thanks for confirming. I've now installed Flash 9.0.151.0 and indeed TurnFlash still works. Cheers! :)

On my 98FE box, version 9.0.151 has the same problem that 115 and 124 had. See http://www.msfn.org/board/Adobe-Flash-Play...11-t115186.html
Try this link and see if the "browse" button works for you.
http://www.imageshock.eu/
With version 151, the browse button won't work. With version 47 it does.
Element-IT makes this flash uploader. They have demo's for the one used on that site and a newly released one. Neither will work with 151 on 98FE. Do they work with 151 on 98SE or WinME?

Hi Rick,

I am using version 9.0.151 on both my 98SE and 98SE2ME boxes.

The "browse" button does NOT work on either the imageshock site or the Element-IT flash uploader demos in either FF 2.0.0.18 or Opera 9.62.

I am keeping with 151 at the moment as I do not have any problems with this version on the normal sites I commonly use. However I still have versions 9.0.115, 9.0.124 and 9.0.47 on my programs partition on my second HD so I can re-install the 47 version if any problems arise with 151.

HTH

since today (1.1.2009) the Youtube requested from me newest flash player althought i have one installed already. Version 10 is no longer supported for win98/ME systems, so i downloaded the one from this page. this version worked for me. now it is only question of time when version 10 will be requested. For this reason i shall try analyze version 10 with dependency walker. if it comply with KEX 0.3.6 it will be possible to install it manually using regsrvr32.exe.

So far I haven't had significant problems accessing YouTube with Flash 7 (although since some of the more recent upgrades to the site, embedded videos no longer work). I'm not sure why the site would be prompting for an upgrade yet, unless it's just a fluke...

hmm, that's strange. what web browser were you using when Youtube asked you to obtain the new flash player, Offler? also, check if you have a "flash blocker" installed and enabled. if the flash blocker is on, turn it off and reload the Youtube site.

YouTube should still work with at least Flash Player 7 as noted here.

That's correct. Using icab and an old flash plugin for netscape(flash 7) i saw you/redtube videos from my powerbook 3400(R.I.P).
