Daave you have been a great help and I tried all your suggestions that
you listed above, Deleted Browsing History, Deleted all History,
Deleted all Tempory Internet Files. Did all this and still no luck,
still couldn't open a .swf link. Then I decided to delete my Ad-Aware
program in case that was causing the problem, No luck with that
either, then decided to delete the Big-Fix program still no Luck. By
the time I got done I couldn't even open a Youtube Video. So by now
as you can tell I was getting really upset, so as a last ditch effort
I decided to upgrade my "Internet Explorer 7" to "Internet Explorer
8" and *Whoop-De-Do* Everthing started working again!!!!!
So far it doesn't seem to be to bad of an updrade, maybe I should have
done that in the first place. I really appreciate all the help you
have been, and I guess you can add this to your bag of tricks if
anyone else has a problem. * If all else fails upgrade to E I
8"*.......Thanks a Million DCR804!!!!

I'm glad things are working for you. As a rule, upgrading to fix an
issue shouldn't be done. That is, the normal course of action is to
address and fix the issue and *then* upgrade. But I'm glad things are
working.
