FW: FLASH: Flash Player 5 - Brad Merritt

[JGL]

I noticed that your(pmg.net) download leads your site visitors to the

shockwave download(a10minute DLfor56kers) and not the Flash download

page(a1minuteDL). At the shockwave download page, there is no direct option

to DL the 5 player.


But the flash DL page  . . . first instruction is:


Get Macromedia Flash Player 5 Beta NOW


You tell me, am I over re-acting? Especially in light of the fact that two

people/customers(only 2 notified me - how many more are there) had their

systems lock up after going to my client's site?

Brad, how is my fault that a Flash4 site that has been around for 4 solid

error free months is failing because joeaverege surfers (who probably don't

even know what beta means) are downloading the beta player and going to this

site and having it lock up their system?


I am real interested in how this is my fault? uh?
