Fresh off a brand-spanking Vista SP1 install, an SP2 install, and an install of 64-bit Firefocks (Shiretoko 3.5 Beta 4), I am going to now try and install Shockwave and see if it works with my 64-bit Firefox and IE8 browsers.
If the ordinary install routine doesn't make the Flash content show up on the test page then I'm going to try this suggested method from the Techarena Forums.
From the people at Adobe Labs:
We get leftovers for dinner again.
Oh, well. I'm going to see if the Shockwave jerry-rigging works in SP2 and if it does or doesn't I'll edit this post. The method recommends doing Shockwave first. I'm installing V 11.5.0.596 of Shockwave. I'll be using IE 64-bit to do it.
And then I'll try jerry-rigging Flash and report back. I'll be installing V 10.0.22.87.

Adobe Labs (click on this box to Hyperlink there) said:Release versions of Flash Player 10 for Windows, Macintosh, and Linux are now available from the Flash Player Download Center.
