Hello My Compuer Literate Friends!

I've received an attachment that is an .swf file. When I try to open it, an error message apprears..that Adobe reader could not open it because it is not a supported file type? Earlier when I saved it, and tried to open it I was sent to a web page to download Flash player and still nothing. Any ideas?

Thanks

Homer

I'm not particularly computer literate but manage to eventually figure things out. I would try downloading Flashplayer from

http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash

and then try opening the attachment.

yep, flash player will do it
if you have flash player already installed, save the attachment and drag it into your browser window
