Every time I try to download the Shockwave player, 1 of 2 things happens. Most
of the time it sends me to AOL search page, even if I try from the Adobe
website, i'm getting the same thing. Sometimes, when I direct download from
the nickjr.com website (this player is needed for my son's games) It will bring
up the download window, but say I need to check my internet connection...this
connection is fine. I've gone through all of Adobe's bs tech support and have
found nothing that will help.

Any idea's?

I'm in a windows system, I believe its XP, by internet connection is cable.
