I have Adobe shockwave player on my system and when my friends send me an e-mail with a swf extension, it won't open...what am I missing?

geno368,

If you save the file, and then open it that way, does it work? It's possible you don't have file associations set for this type of file within your email program. Do you get an error message, and if so, what is it? Also, what email program are you using?
