fpdownload.macromedia.com unavailable?

[ercicttech]

Hello..

Does anyone know when fpdownload.macromedia.com will be getting pointed to a working server?

I'm hoping to get the latest versions of Shockwave/Flash Players rolled out to my Intranet ASAP, following the security notifications from Microsoft and Adobe.

Any browser connecting from either home or work results in a fpdownload.macromedia.com is unavailable type error.

I realise this has been mentioned in the "Downloads" discussion, but it's right at the bottom so I hoped this might result in a response...

Cheers!

I'm right with you. It's a real bummer, especially cause I'm trying to do a lot of testing with Express Install right now. I really really hope that this problem will be fixed soon.

This is something I found often with Adobe. Incorrect or not enough info... as if they don't care if you get the player or not.
Anyway, enough whining. Here is how you get it.
Take ->
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
and change it to ->
http://download.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe

It should popup. Mind you, that I did this in Firefox. Might need to do the same in IE.
