I know its not an OM issue as its clearly been an Adobe Player problem for almost 2 years looking at Adobe's own Bug system. They've just never fixed it only offered possible work-arounds which may or may not work for everyone. No wonder Adobe is losing out to HTML5 right now.
Also, experimenting with George's 32 bit OM server... accessing from a 64 bit machine... the adobe player settings menu ... does allow clicking on options whereas the adobe player settings menu from a 64 bit server does not. And I'd already tried adding the OM IP to the "trusted sites" in flash settings as one of the work-arounds. But that doesn't work either for a 64 bit server 64 bit local pc thanks though for the email. I and some apple mac users just filed another bug on Adobe's buy system as the mac guys are affected too.
