That's your operating system. What about your browser? Internet Explorer, Firefox, Netscape, Opera...?

You may have a version of it that's too old for the latest version of shockwave. Click "About" from the Help menu, the version number is in there. It should be 6.
Better still, ditch IE and use Firefox.....

It detects your platform. I get a different page depending on whether I use Firefox or IE. Haven't tried it with Linux.

You might need to reboot. IE doesn't seem to have a means to tell you what plugins are installed.
