what is macromedia shockwave player?
141369
Macromedia Shockwave is frequently confused with Macromedia Flash. This is largely due to an aggressive marketing campaign launched in late 1990s. Shockwave is Macromedia's first and less successful multimedia player. In an attempt to leverage its market presence and help promote other multimedia formats all Macromedia players started prepending 'Shockwave' to their names - as in Shockwave Flash. This led to a blurring of product lines. ...\n\nAlthough Macromedia Shockwave was designed for making a wide variety of online movies and animations, its actual use has become concentrated in the area of game development. Shockwave's 3D engine is still unchallenged in this market having replaced Java as the most popular engine for online games. Flash files can be played on a Shockwave player, but not vice versa. Other features not replicated by Flash include a much faster rendering engine, including hardware-accelerated 3D, direct pixel access on bitmap images, blend modes for layered display of graphic assets and support for various network protocols including Internet Relay Chat. Furthermore Shockwave's functionality can be extended with so-called Xtras. Unlike Flash, the Shockwave browser plugin is not available for Linux (or Solaris) despite very vocal lobbying efforts by the Linux community.

I am assuming that you are surfing to a site that requires Flash or Shockwave. If so this will come up if you use IE. Install it and you will be ok.

Flash player is the bit of software that allows you to play the game in the first place. It runs inside Internet Explorer.... I'd recommend you install from http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&promoid=BIOW and just over-write the copy on your machine
