"Macromedia.com has a Flash player for the PocketPc that runs flash animations in the browser on the PDA. The problem is that this does NOT support all Flash animated pages. Sometimes you will browse a site that uses Flash that will cause your browser to close out. If you wish to browse pages that cause this, you can rename the Flash system file on your AXIM something else so that the Flash portions will not be rendered at all, in some cases though the web designers make Flash only pages in which case, you will not be able to see those sites until a better Flash player is released for Pocket PC. The file is found where you installed it (the file should be in your Windows main memory folder in the Macromedia folder):

Flash Player Version 6 for Pocket PC "

This is exactly what happened when I installed Flash 6 on my x50v. The puzzling thing is that the same Flash 6 installed on an ipaq 4150 (WM2003) displays the same website without any problems !

My question is: Could I missed a step or what ?

Could you be more specific when you said that I can overcome this "snag" by renaming the Flash 6 system file, like which exactly is the system file ? And, if I do this, does it mean that I have to rename it back when I come across sites that are friendly to Flash 6 ?

Thanks !!! Really appreciate help here. Thanks again !!
