Re: Macromedia Stability

I'm using both (and both started out as trial versions) with Win98 with no 
problems.

The problem could come in if you got a bad download. A bad download
may let the programs seem to install ok but will produce some funky results
even ones such as you see below.

Suggestion is to uninstall them redownload and try again... make sure you
clean your registry and wipe out all traces on your HD before doing so just to
be safe.

I've had this happen once with another program can't remember which one now.

I would suggest if you're not using Go!Zilla to download your programs that you
get it since it's free and such and awsome program. A hell of a lot better than
GetRight.

This is only one possible cause of the problem mind you.

I've said it before and I'll say if again, get Norton Utilities 2000 if you 
don't already
have it, it's not all that much and can save you a lot of headaches and run 
WinDoctor,
Disk Doctor, Speed Disk and Norton Optimization Wizard when you get it. And 
Yes in
that order.

No I don't have any affiliation with them nor make any money from them,
just really love the programs.
