Question

Is there an FTP site?

I need to download Flash Player for a different platform than the one I am currently on. I am creating a CD so I can install an application cluster on a number of Windows PCs *before* those PCs go on the network.

As it happens, all my personal machines are running Linux. If I go to the website to download Flash, it "helpfully" provides me with links to download the Linux version of Flash. Although that's very nice of it, Flash is running fine on my Linux box, thank you very much. I need the Windows version.

So far the website steadfastly refuses to show me what I need. I went to the Adobe FTP site where I have been able to resolve other Adobe download related annoyances, but it doesn't seem that any of the Macromedia stuff is there.

So where can I go to download the Flash version for a platform I am not currently using? Without any "help" from the website scripts?

Thanks!

    Go to www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer. On the right hit the 'more players' link. That will let you get the plugins and/or the ActiveX control.

    Unfortunately, that doesn't work.

    Yes, you get to go to a page that lists all the platforms and gives you a link for each to download flash player.

    Each one auto-detects your current platform and sends you where **it** thinks is appropriate. Which is right back where you started.

    Please protect me from software that wants to *help* me.
