Hi greg
Since updating, my browser will not accept flash.
It cashes every time.
The details say:
Shockwave Flash Object, ActiveX Control, flash.ocx.
Try the following and see if it helps:
Allow active content to run in files on My Computer - Windows XP Service
Pack 2:

or.........
Enable Flash in SP2
Internet Options> Advanced> Security> Check "Allow active content to run in
files on My Computer"
You will, of course, be giving up some of the security provided by SP2.
You can also make My Computer visible in Internet Options> Security to allow
additional tweaking.
See

Computer" security zone"
also........

Flash & Shockwave not working
A few of things could contribute to the problem. Have you checked your
firewall to see if the ad-blocker or Flash blocker is set to on or block?
Also, there are several Pop-up blockers that will block Flash unless you
turn it off. I had POP-UP Blocker and it would not open Flash at all, and
it took me a while to figure out what was doing it When I unchecked the
Kill Flash it stopped. Some Flash has pop-ups and the blockers will see
them as ads or and kill it any way.
Also, if you have SpywareBlaster installed, be sure you have Kill Flash
unchecked - Open SpywareBlaster - Tools - Click on Flash Killer then uncheck
"Switch off Flash Player" or in v3.1 Disable and block Macromedia Flash (4X
5X & 6X) in Internet Explorer.
or..........................
Remove Flash, including all registry entries for it. Reboot then go to
Macromedia's site. Since it is Flash based you should get the dialog to
install Flash. Use the removal information at their site here:

Macromedia Flash Player Download Center Windows

If these steps do not resolve your problem, please post back to this thread
with the details and any error messages.
Hope this helps
