Hi people

I recently downloaded an Ezine from a reputable website.

Its a magazine pdf with video embedded.

The problem i'm getting is whenever i encounter a page with video i get a message saying missing media player.

I have the same setup on my laptop and it works fine..??

Setup is Vista Ultimate, Acrobat Reader 8, up-to-date Flash and shockwave player (applies to both machines).

one thing i noticed thats different is when i look at my installed programs on the lappy it shows Flash player Activex on the desktop it doesn't even show flash player in the list of programs (checked using the adobe site and says flash installed successfully).

any ideas whats going on??

many thanks

Chris.
