It seems Virgin.com have just updated their website, and most of out Citrix
servers have an older version of Flash installed. I don't know what
intelligence Virgin's site is trying to use, but it seems it is trying to force
install a newer version of flash, and fails.

All the user sees, and this happens on administrator accounts also, is the
title of the page being "Virgin.com - The global gateway to the Virgin G -
Flash Player Installation - Microsoft Internet Explorer" and a popup window
saying " Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site
[url]http://www.virgin.com/home.aspx[/url]. Operation aborted." Clicking OK gives the
familiar "The page cannot be displayed" message, yet the page had half loaded
in the background prior to the error.

If I install the latest executable installer for version 9.0.45, then the site
still doesn't work. If I then install version 9.0.45 with the debugger, then
the site works fine.

Now while I agree that Virgin's site code would leave alot to be desired in
what it does, I cannot understand why there is a difference in what the debug
install and the normal installer can play in the browser??

I have screen shots of the installers and the install logs if required. This
is running on Windows 2000 with IE 6 and Metaframe XP. The install both times
was done using 'change user /install', then running the installer as an
administrator account, then change user /execute afterwards, as opposed from
through Add/Remove Programs.
