Ok so here I am running my "favorite" web browser FIREFOX on Mac Tiger PowerPC operating system only to find that Adobe Flash player must be updated in order to function... but it gets even better... Adobe Flash Player still makes updates available for free operating system like Linux... is this so kind of bad joke? I personally love my Mac Tiger and am truly disappointed that FireFox will not like sites like myspace run without the Adobe update... Is this some kind of bad joke... My friends already switched back to Safari but I thought I would touch base with you guys first to make sure that I wasn't missing something....

Your problem is that you have a very old version of Adobe Flash (aka Shockwave Flash). Your version is 9.0 r277; current version is 10.1 r53.

THANK YOU TXGUY!!!!!

I got the download link here now my FIREFOX has it's fire back and all is right again in the world!

Anyone else having the same problem just go with the top download link (not the one that says PPC) It will work like a charm and your PPC Mac will thank you for it...
