Shockwave invaded my Vista laptop in July of 2008 and since then
cannot run MSN Jigsaw. ('Games - Comics, Games, News of the Weird
MSNBC.com' (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20044245/?cat=uj)) I hav
removed Shockwave and tried to reload it, but all I get is a panel whic
says "Shockwave is loading". It never completes. It worked fine befor
the "update". I am running 32 bit home version. I have the accurse
Windows Live One Care installed. (It is going away after th
subscription expires. It is a gigantic pain in the a$$ and i
incompatable with AdAware. AdAware always finds bugs that One Car
misses.

I found one page which had totally incomprehensible IT leve
instructions for repairing the load

Is there a simple fix that me, Joe Public, can install

The simple name for Joe Public is Flash Player!
Or Shockwave Flash Player to name it properly.

Follow instructions on uninstall link above, then reinstall from Adobe site
link below.
Untick the Google toolbar option before you download it.

Thanx for the instructions.

I followed your directions, but when it starts to download Shockwave, I
get a message that says "Internet has been disconnected", then
everything shuts down.

Thanx anyway.
