FLash movies and games
      #346338 - Sat May 05 2007 12:25 PM

Hi there,

My daughter gets a mesage when she boots up Windows XP, the message says
'Could not find the flash.ocx'
Can anyone tell us what it means and how can we get rid of it.

Try this first - http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer


Google came up with -

Disable the Flash OCX - October 08, 2002
a nice way to temporarily disable the flash plugin (ocx) is the
Xteq COM Register Extension.

'It's an extension for the Windows Explorer, simply right-click an OCX, DLL or EXE file
and select "Register ..." or "Unregister ..." from the menu.
This will either register or unregister the selected component from the registry.'

on xp the path is:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\Macromed\Flash\flash.ocx

read the uninstall technote from macromedia for more details

Does your daughter use a screen saver when your PC/laptop is idle?
