Here's a recount of what happened:
I installed Flex 2 without the Flash Player 8.5 for IE (I use Firefox)
But when I launched IE with Flexstore.html it started downloading the player *.cab file then went blank ..
The same thing happened when I tried to create a Projector from SWF in Flash Player 8.5
I looked at the link to the flash player in flexstore.html and it said: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,5,0,0
However, when I opened the downloaded CAB with WinRAR it showed Flash8.ocx (ActiveX Flash plugin for IE) with a date of 8/27/2005 which is many months older than the ActiveX plugin on the Flex 2.0 Beta 1 download page.
I believe they forgot to update the link to the latest flash player in the generated HTML and in the Projector code...
I posted the above note on the forum about 2 weeks ago.. I'm not sure if they've fixed it... There is no bug tracking system for developers to use when reporting bugs.. I guess this list is it

I searched the list and didn't come up with anything helpful.
I'm using Flex Builder 2 Beta, full-on install with the Flex
framework, and I installed player 8.5 along with it.
I've been using it for a while now, but last night I went to build a
project, and suddenly I got an error telling me that I had player
version 8,0,24,... and I obviously need 8,5. I have since uninstalled
and reinstalled the Flex Builder (and Player 8.5 with it, again).
I've also downloaded and run the standalone installers(ActiveX and
API) for Player 8.5, to no avail. I still get the same error when
trying to build my project, and the compiled SWF won't display in my
browser.
Has anyone had this or a similar problem? Tis very weird.
Cheers
