you probably dont have permissions to download and install shockwave on that PC... are they using windows profiles? Is this PC windows 2000/NT or 9x/ME?

or are you saying you can download shockwave just not load any of the pages?

it sounds like they have some kind of IE profiles locked down fairly tight. considering how easy it is to exploit active X bugs, i'm not surprised....

they might have the install downloader turned off in the Advanced tab in IE. (Tools->Internet Options->Advanced->Enable Install on Demand)

You might also check your multimedia permissions under that tab as well if you can get to it...

you might also want to clear your IE cache out and close IE and restart it after you make these changes.
