Just to be on the safe side I downloaded the latest and greatest (which

I just rebooted my system into Win98, installed the Flash 5 player into
Netscape, and the swf tells me I don't have Flash 5. So I guess I'll try • the
exe version...

Try hitting refresh if you're looking at the SWF in a browser - there's
something funky in Flash 5 where sometimes the version check we use fails
and so you get the message about requiring Flash 5. Seems that Macromedia
need to do a bit more compatibility testing in new products :(

(...) Yeah, I did that. Also closed the browser, and cleared the cache. No good. This is Netscape Communicator 4.76. (24 years ago, 20-Dec-00, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
