Welcome to the forums Alex! :)

You can get a trial free version of flash from:
http://www.macromedia.com/software/flash/

Or if you prefer drag and drop programs,
try Coffeecup's Firestarter

Swish and Firestarter are shareware products I believe, but a lot less inexpensive than the Flash 5 Program. They can get you started making animations pretty quick. But as mentioned earlier, a 30 day trial version is available at the Macromedia Site.

O.K. this is where I got my full version of Flash.

1) Go to www.Kazaa.com and download the KaZaA media ddesktop

2) Install it (obviously)

3) Run the program if it doesnt automatically and once you connect click "search"

4) Click the Everything Radio Button and search for "Macromedia Flash 5 + Serial" or something along those line

5) When results are returned download the one who's name is "Macromedia Flash 5 Full + Serial"

6) The Serial Number is in the Readme file.

7) And Voila your very own full version of Macromedia Flash 5

Backdoor Santa Spyware: WebHancer



According to the WebHancer website, the purpose of this program is as follows:

"webHancer Customer Companion resides on the end-user's computer, where it transparently monitors Internet performance. webHancer Customer Companion measures overall network/site delay and the performance times experienced by actual end-users."
Infection method:
The majority of users running WebHancer are not aware they are running it, unless they have noticed system side-effects or unusual data transfers from their machine. WebHancer, like "Comet Curse", falls into the category of "everything-installs-it-can't-get-rid-of-it" virusware, with completely unrelated software secretly installing the WebHancer product on the user's system. (Given this, I think the program should be more aptly called "WebCancer" :) In one of the most user-hostile moves I've seen in a while, the clandestine WebHancer install will reportedly overwrite critical system files with its own versions, causing the system to break if the user dares to try uninstalling the spy. WebHancer's makers claim not to modify system files, although they have confirmed that attempting to remove it will break your system.

Removal procedures:

As noted earlier, simply deleting WebHancer files from your system will result in a high probability of losing your ability to connect to the Internet. WebHancer modifies your Windows Sockets configuration, binding itself to Winsock so that all packets are passed through WebHancer.
