Guys , the problem goes on here , I have invested a lot of time on that movie for it not to run on some desktop comp.  
(I tested it on an University Network and it ran ) ;  
has someone else have had the same kind of problem ?  
I exported the html code with Publishing settings \>HTML\>Detect Flash Version checked ;

some people report that movie does not load then the message below appear , I prod them to click get flash , and the installation does not go on ;

Does someone have any hint ?

ORIGINAL MESSAGE…  
I created a movie on Flash mx 2004 , and recently , after installing flash 8 , I saved it with new version and exported it as a flash 8 movie ;  
Henceforth some people complain that it does not run on their computers ;  
I think it just can be a flash 8 player update problem on those people´s systems (?) ; I thought the code line …pluginspage=“[http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer](http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer)” /\> would take care of downloading and installing the player ;  
so , how to fix this problem ?
