I can see a shockwave page when logged on to Win2K Pro as Administrator but not, on the same PC, when logged on as a user. Both under IE5. Could only download Shockwave as Administrator.

How do I allow users to play swf files?
Thanks.
Tony.
 
Hi. I did. Basically, the program installed itself with Administrator permissions on the installation directory and sunfolders. If you can see where SW/Flash has been installed, check to see what the permissions are. If they're only allowing Admins full access change them to allow user, power users or whatever.
I'm assuming you know/can figure out how to do this but am happy to help as and when I can if you need.
Good luck.
Tony.

Hi!

Log-on as administrator then go to Control Panel ->User's and Groups ->Select "User" ->Properties -> Group Membership ->choose Others ->click drop-down menu ->choose "Power User" or "Administrator"

Hope this help. THANKZ!
