Hi,

I'm getting exactly the same thing. I'm using firefox with a Mac, Could it have something to do with downloading the update?

Its a shame you've got no feedback on this subject.

Me too! I, too, am using Mac OS X 10.3.9 with Firefox as my browser. Who out there knows how we can solve this problem?

I've gotten the same thing. This looks like a virus but I'm not sure.

This is my solution;
Open Quicktime>edit>preferences>browser>mime settings>miscellaneous>"Unclick Flash media"
Open Quicktime>edit>preferences>file types>miscellaneous>"Unclick Flash media"`

So far so good.

Thank you for the suggestion, but it didn't work for me. I follow this pathway, suggested in another forum (a MacGenius told me that it's not a problem with Quicktime):

home>library>preferences>macromedia>flash player>

http://www.macromedia.com>bin>fpupdatepl>flashUpdater8r24a

This works, but I have to do it EVERY time i open my browser.
