no Flash Display after WinXP Update

[Markus Hildebold]

Hello NG!

After getting an automatic Windows XP Update for approx. 4 Weeks, my browse
do not show any flash animations any more.
Trying to reinstall Falshplayer Again do not work either.
Any Websites containig Active-X components cant be shown either (e.g.
macromedia Installation Website for Flash Plugin)

Deinstalling Windows Updates fix the problem, but i would noct like to
Deinstall the Patches.

Can anybody help me?
Thank you very much,
markus

Thank you for your response!
ißve done the Workarounds descripted in the posted articles and the flash
animations are now visible.
But:
Installing Active-X plugins, like flash player, doesn´t still work. Internet
Explorer Ignores the Active-X Installation. The InfoBar which show an
possible Active-X installation ("Click here to Install Active-X ...") doesnt
appear.

Any Hint?
Thank You
Markus
