"Solid Nitrogenous Waste"
Version: Adobe Shockwave Player 11.6.0.626
Pros
Who can tell?
Cons
The last umpty-seven updates have been a "con."
Summary
I've attempted to download and install Adobe Shockwave Player for Mac for the last I-don't-know-how-many times an update has been announced and have yet to be able to actually open it given that it tells me "the file cannot be found" (after Reader opens and asks me yet again if I want it to be the default for viewing PDF files despite checking "never ask again"). Perusing the FAQ was a further waste of time--it seems that those without administrator privileges lack permission to install but I'm not only the sole user of my computer but wasn't asked to "phone home," either (unlike installing, e.g., Flash Player or Reader).
All in all, a monumental waste of personal resources and a rather annoying pain in the posterior. -

Shockwave site does not do a good job helping you know which one to install, telling you which version you have and telling you how they fixed it.
Summary

"But not 10.6?"
Version: Adobe Shockwave Player 11.5.7r609
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
According to Adobe, the system requirements stop at 10.5. Does that mean it isn't necessary for Snow Leopard, that they haven't made it compatible with Snow Leopard, or that they never heard of Snow Leopard? Until or unless I find that this POS is essential, I think I'll give it a miss. -
