I dunno, I really am lost with all this. If this is a new idea from someone
is there a way to get around it or some other loop hole i could use to get
past this problem?

Ah! Good thought Ray.

But does the same apply to browser plug-ins also? If so, you are correct
that there is something in Tim's registry (or elsewhere?) that says he has
Flash, even if the bulk of the program is deleted. Tim? Is that any help?

With Windows it's a bad idea to just delete stuff because all the crap it had
put in the registry is still there and Windows gets confused about it.  Most
programs have an uninstall routine that can be accessed in it's Start Menu
folder or the Add/Remove Programs section of Control Panel.

OK...here goes...(Mac user here, if I screw up the Windows lingo, forgive • me)...

-Right click on your hard drive (if it's on the desktop, if not, navigate to
it from your Start menu) and choose Explore.
-In the hirearchy tree, find the folder for your browser (Internet Explorer
or Netscape Navigator probably) and click on it.
-In the open browser folder, find the Plug-Ins folder, click on it.
-Locate the plug-in for Flash. Right click on it and choose Delete.
-Now open your browser and conect to the Internet. Go to www.macromedia.com,
and go to the Downloads area. Install the Flash plug-in again.

When you are done, the game should work again. Because this happened to me
often, I just kept the Flash Installer on my desktop and used it to
instigate the re-install each time I wanted it.

Hope that helps. Anyone else should feel free to chime in and correct any
mistakes I have made for the Windows system.
