Assuming you need the actual offline download (as you can't access the normal online one without the interweb):

ActiveX (Internet Explorer): [fpdownload.macromedia.com]

Opera, Netscape and Firefox: [fpdownload.macromedia.com]

//edit: these are both version 9.0.28.0, or at least they were the last time I checked.

We got some Belkin cardbus adapters at work for the non-wireless laptops. I'm trying not to come over as too strong, but they're @#$%& @#$%&.

Belkin have been an overpriced lump of crap, living off a past reputation and still overcharging on it. Best compliment I can give them: they make good power adapters.

wahay broadband at long long last!! Just got to get a longer USB cable so I can get a better signal :D

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I'd be careful of that bestobritish... unless the device is mains powered, you could find the computer not recognising because the cable's too long for the power to get across it. One way around that is a powered USB hub.

I've got belkin - the first one was the cheapest wireless stuff (branded) i could get, but it was dodgy from the offf - never really worked too well, always dropping the connection.

Contacted belkin USA (only help emaail address I could find), and got an answer 12 hours later, asking foor my address so they could send me a new one! It arrived a week later, and was the top of the line bells and whistlles version! Its been bulletproof :) I also got my mac at the same time, which has far better wireless range than my pc used to, so maybe that's a factor.
