I had the same problem the Plugin Finder Service said that I needed
Macromedia Flash Player 7 and it would install it. I waited and waited
but there was no indication of activity on my modem leds, so I hit
cancel did a quick Google, downloaded the program in a few seconds and
the installation program automatically installed it as a Firefox plug
in. It's possible that their sever is just flat out on the first couple
of days or it may be a bug. I suppose time will tell.
