Hi there,
this patch fixes the shockwave activex control installer.
1. basically it calls gethostbyname("pinger.macromedia.com:80"); my patch just skips the :80 so that the gethostbyname call won't fail....
2, it also fixes non-absolute urls before it made ugly things like pub/foobar/blah with my patch it's corrected to /pub/foobar...
Trivial patch
Bye Bye Niko
