For Vista Ultimate 64 the Macromed folder is in the SysWOW64 folder. The Flash folder contained both Flash10b.cox and Flash10c.com.

@Simona: The file name (Flash9f.ocx/Flash10b.ocx) varies depending on the version of Flash installed. The error messages described in this post seem to occur most often with Flash 9. If you are using Flash 10, you’ll see the new Flash10b.ocx file instead.

For Vista, the file in the C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\ is named Flash10b.ocx this file should be changed
Tnx!
