I am trying to view the Lulu demonstration but cannot. I am using Windows 7
and IE 64 bit and apparently I need to run the 32 bit to see the demo.

I don't know how to.

Any help would be appreciated.

John,
For the time being there is no 64-bit flash player for IE 64-bit.

You need to install the 32-bit flash plug-in and active-x from here:
http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer10.html
After that you should be able to see your demonstration using IE 32-bit in
Windows 7 64-bit.

IE8 32 bit is the default browser in Windows 7 64. Maybe you just don't
have Flash installed properly?

Hi, John.

Adobe Flash apparently is still stuck in the 20th Century. :>( See this
Adobe TechNote, updated just this week (5/4/10):

http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/000/6b3af6c9.html

As you probably know, BOTH 32-bit and 64-bit versions of IE8 are built into
Win7. By default, the 32-bit version runs when you click the Big Blue "e".
To run the 64-bit IE8, you must specifically choose the iexplore.exe file in
C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer, rather than the one in C:\Program Files
(x86)\Internet Explorer.

I've edited the shortcut to run 64-bit IE, but I'm not sure that was a smart
move. When I get a message asking if I want to install Flash, I remember
that I'm running 64-bit. So I just Copy the URL from the Address Box, then
start 32-bit IE (it's pinned to my Start Menu) and Paste the URL there.

Thank you all for your comments and the problem is now all sorted.

After I had read all you said I finally followed R.C's advice and, for this
particular matter, used the 32 bit IE, went to Lulu, clicked Demo and there
it was. That solved it and I can now revert to the 64 bit option for
everyday purposes.

Once again, many thanks to each and all.
