flashplugin Error #2046

Hey,

Occasionally I get this error when opening Flash applications:

Error #2046: The loaded file did not have a valid signature.

In particular i've had this error on koowy (just enter a random channel name there) and David Lynch's Interview Project

Searching for the reason i found this blog post and assumed it depends on the page itself. I contacted the interviewproject.de webadmin but i was told that everything is fine and it must be my fault. They pointed on that thread: Flash problem - John Stewart Show Video

In that thread it seems to be a problem with arch64. However, I'm on 32bit and emptying cache (firefox/flash) did not help. Neither could I open the pages with Chromium.

I also tried flashplugin-prerelease32 which did not help. The only difference was that with regular flashplugin the error message lacked explanation and only showed the number.

Can anyone confirm this problem for arch32? Any suggestions?

Thanks, panuh

Re: flashplugin Error #2046

I don't know how firewalling or my ISP should cause this but I can try it at university tomorrow. Thanks for the hint, jokerboy.

However, i'm on arch32 not 64. Can anybody confirm this issue for arch32?
