Question

Chess on yahoo games -- I have an old version of client in my cache. How can I get a current version?

Answer 1

Problem is caused by newer version of adobe flash, that is version 9,0,115,0 and above.

Clearing your browser cache will not help.

Either install an old version of adobe flash or play chess in java (old yahoo chess).

If you choose to install old version beware as some new websites will not work.

Another option is to have 2 different  browsers (eg IE and Firefox) one with newer and other with older version of adobe flash installed.

Answer 2

do this!

Yahoo’s new updates to games has caused a lot of game demo’s to be “outdated” Normal clearing of cache (deleting browser history/temp files) does not remove the outdated version.  Click Start,, Search, click files;  type in yahoo chess. Right click on the file and remove it. That is the old version you downloaded the 1st time you played.  You will be prompted to download the new version next time you go to chess.

Answer 3

Some glitches with the games. Maybe I can help:

1. Clear cache

2. Erase stale pages

3. Restart your browser

4. Install Java Applet

5. Turn off Pop-Up Blocker.

After you do all of these steps, now try again.
