Apologies if this question has already been answered...

Today, I discovered that the Canadian 'CTV' network had recently made available a flash-based web site for viewing popular TV show episodes shown on its network e.g. Lost. This is great, since all the US network websites block Canadians from their own sites for doing the same thing

http://watch.ctv.ca/

In order for this to work on my laptop, I found out that I needed to download/install the Adobe flash player -- version 9. Apparently the version I now have is:

LNX 9,0,124,0

Unfortunately, only *some* of the flash content works -- it crashes when actually playing the content that I want -- but this is not the issue...

My N800 also has Flash Player version 9:

LNX 9,0,31,35

When I try the CTV website, I get the message:

"Express install is not supported by this version of the
Flash Player. To upgrade, please visit
Flash Player Download Center"

OK, so can anyone comment on why this is occuring? Is the version of Flash Player on my N800 *slightly* too old, and the website is detecting this, and forcing me to upgrade?

Thanks
