How to direct user to download Flash 9

I just finished making a game. But Somone was trying it out and they received this error message...

"Alternate HTML content should be placed here.This content requires the Adobe Flash Player.Get Flash"

They didn't have Flash 9 and thus couldn't run the AS3 game. However, since they already had the Flash Player, they didn't think they needed to download the Flash Player again. Is there a pre-made javascript that can be used to tell people they need to upgrade to Flash 9 and then give them a link? I'm fairly new to ActionScript programming. Any help would be greatly appreciated. And if you have any feedback on the game, I'd love to hear it.

Here's the game link:

the html published by flash contains the code to alert users that they have an inadequate version of flash (if that's the case) and provides a link to update their player.

Yes, that's probably the message in my original post. The only problem is that it doesn't explain that the user has the wrong version. The guy who tried it thought something was wrong with my program because he already had Flash. But he didn't have Flash 9. So is there a way to modify the html that Flash publishes so that it indicates the version is the problem?
