Flash No Longer Available?


Has anybody tried to get Macromedia Flash lately? The link http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/...ShockwaveFlash
has not worked in about 2 weeks, have they discontinued support on this and no longer allow it for download, if so what do us linux users use?

how strange, when I first clicked on your link the window prompting for download came out as normal. Now when I click nothing happens.

i wonder what is up with macromedia :\ so it seems nobody i know can get flash on linux. lucky for me, i already have it on my other box. i always get a failed status when i try to install with firefox, and when attempting to install manually, i recieve an alert : fpdownload.macromedia.com could not be found. Please check the name and try again. if anyone has any info, it would be appreciated by myself, as well as some of my friends. much thanks
