	How to view movies in Flash format

Since its introduction in 1996, Macromedia's Flash has become established as the most common vector-based design and animation technology on the Internet. The Flash player software is available for download as a browser plug-in. If you do not have Flash 4 installed (it is critical that you have version 4) on your computer it can be downloaded at no cost at the Macromedia web site. Movies in Flash format are identified on this web site with the

icon.

Steps to download and view Flash files: Check that you have already installed Flash 4 browser plug-in on your hard drive (current versions of most browsers come with Flash 4 already loaded). If not, click the "GET FLASH NOW" button above and follow the steps to download the borwser plug-in.

The plug-in is easy to install. Download the Flash file. After downloading, quit your browser and double-click the setup program.

When the plug-in is installed you will be able to see all the movies on this site and the thousands of other sites using Flash 4 for both interactive web pages and anamated movies.
