The IE page opens up with the URL in the address bar, but the page is
totally blank

Hi Joy,

I do not have an answer to your query.

It seems you are getting the same response when trying to open a .swf file
from the internet or the ones received via email.

This would make me think you have a problem with your flash viewer program
as pointed out by PA Bear.

I am not sure where to you should go to for help, perhaps someone else can
suggest.

| | sigh I went to that page, and it downloaded something and said
| | Installation Complete! Great! (I thought), so tried the two .smf
| e-mails
| | again, and still neither one would open. The mini-golf game
attachment
| | said 85 bytes, the other one had the URL only in the body of the
e-mail,
| so
| | no size. That other one, by the way (I was told) was a silly thing
| about
| a
| | screen cleaner that in reality looks like a dog licking the screen.

| |
| | Do you see "Installation complete" in the first 2 windows?
| |
| | What is the size of each attachment or SWF file?
