Vista SP1 RC breaks Flash.

Hi,

I installed the Vista SP1 RC without any problems in Vista itself.
However, I see one annoying problem: The Flash player/plug-in crashes
the two browsers I have tried running so far: IE7 and Safari. Suddenly
the browser hangs and Vista shuts it down. The first time it happened
Vista pointed to the Flash player. I have tried to uninstall Flash and
the problem goes away. Seems like Adobe needs to update Flash before
SP1 gets widely deployed.

Anyone else here seen this problem? Yes I now this is not the final
version of RC1, but still...

Thank you for your report. That's exactly what we expect to hear as we put
software out as BETA releases. We so much appreciate the fact that you are
prepared to test the software and point out its deficiencies. You are a
true and valued BETA tester. Now, if you'd keep your whining down, we're
sure that Adobe will eventually accomodate your needs. Remember, at
Microsoft, software is NEVER released before its time. Just look at the
release of Vista to appreciate how bug-free the release was because of all
you valued BETA testers.

Cheers.

Hey, are you for real? Actually, I'm one of those who thinks Vista
is the best that has come from MS since...errrm.....a long time ago. It
just runs, and runs, so I took a chance on the RC1 beta which also runs
it seems. Oh, and it looks great without any being yet another Apple
design copy. That's an achievement in itself these days.

And MS never releases before it's time? Again, are you for real?

"nostop", aka "doris" is a cross-dressing MS hating, lying linux troll.
He is a broke, unemployed (proly unemployable) miserable POS who can't
stand the success BG and MS has achieved. He is consumed with jealousy
and hatred for all things MS.
When you think about mentally deranged losers, he is at the very top of
everyone's lost.
IOW's pay not attention to him, he's a real as*hole!

I don't care if IE7 and Safari are now broken: what about a good
browser? HINT: Firefox. is it still working with flash and the BETA
software you so naively installed and are no whining about?

Not towards liars, trolls and as*holes I'm not.
Now which one of those are you?

Hi Ceed,

Have you tried reinstalling Adobe Flash Player to see if it had just
gotten corrupted while installing the SP1?

To be honest: I am really not interested if you care or not. The fact
is that there are quite a few people who use both IE7 and Safari. Since
Safari uses the FF Flash plug-in I would assume FF would have a problem
also, wouldn't you?

And I am not whining. I am reporting a problem. If you would bother
reading the whole post I add that I know it's a Beta. Even MS
encourages people to report problems with SP1. What I tried to achieve
was to find out if it was only me or if others have the same problem. I
was not looking for your infantile browser bashing. I keep forgetting
that people like you still frequent newsgroups. Thank you for reminding
me!
