I've a web designer and have been getting a few comments that my
website homepage is "broken" -- that clicking on the Flash links
produces no results. At least 2 of these users had Norton Internet
Security 2005, which I'm guessing is the problem. Most users can see
it just fine, but these users get a message that "an attack has been
stopped" or something, then the links seem not to work. Strangely,
even clicking on the "nonflash" link at this point they cannot get
through using regular links.

Does anybody know how I can fix this for these users? It must either
be the Flash movie or code at www.davidkerrdesign.com/index-flash.html
or the "redirect" script that detects flash and sends users to the
right page (posted below).

My goal is to not interrupt users without Flash with any Macromedia
Flash player options but just show them the alternative content (thus
the redirect code & 2 page versions, flash and nonflash).

Here is the redirect script, which I've had for years, and was adapted
from one Macromedia had with an earlier version of flash (it's the
index.html page on my site, but probably not viewable since its
javascript sends you right off):

code in the page head:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
<HTML>
 <HEAD>
<TITLE>David Kerr Design: web print and animation design</TITLE>
  <META http-equiv="Content-Script-Type" content="text/javascript">
  <SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript" SRC="Dispatcher-rev.js"></SCRIPT>
  <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript" SRC="Dispatcher.vbs"></SCRIPT>
 </HEAD>

CODE IN THE BODY:

  <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
    MM_FlashDispatch(
	"index-flash.html",
	"4.0",
	false,				// don't require latest rev. of plug-in
	"index-noflash.html",
	!MM_FlashUserDemurred(),	// don't install if user said no once
	"index-noflash.html",
	"index-noflash.html",
	false
    );

  </SCRIPT>

Thanks! David

I would also be open to a good clean script solution that displays the
flash if they have the player or alternate content if they don't, if
anybody can suggest something. It's particularly important that the
index.html page have some good live html content on it for search
engines. Thanks!
