I got this error when opening a webpage with Firefox.
I opened a webpage, www dot espn dot com, more sports, horse racing.
I got this error:
Action Script error #2030 (from @flash.net)
End of file encountered.
A few seconds later, after the time it took to write down the message, the photo opened up.
Why was there a delay and what does that error mean, and what to do about it.
Thanks.

EOF usually means it could have been a corrupted script. I am navigating there now to see if I can see the same problem and analyze it, what browser are you using and what version of flash?
I just tried are you still able to reproduce that error?

Hi nickg5,
Before I am asking you installing a Flash Debugger for validation if any problems you are running SWF on FireFox. Now we found issues on some pages. I am every day getting the same errors such as Nullpointyer exception or problem reading local files etc. All those problems related implementation of code or backward compatibilities of the Flash Players. I always checking what the problem (that possible only via Flash Player Debugger) and clicking a “Dismiss” button, but if that bother you, please uninstall Debugger version and use consumer, but in this case you will get some SWF files hangs without notifivation.

By the way, it took many, many days to get my computer to let me download Flash to begin with. I had to remove it to stop a problem. It was a long drawn out matter, on other threads. I finally was able to get Acrobat from filehippo dot com as it would not download from Adobe dot com.
Then I could not get Flash from any website.
I had to turn off MSE, disable my firewall and disable my UAC.
So, getting the version of Flash that I have was a problem.
Once I got it on my system, then Firefox kept prompting me to download it and the install would always fail or be blocked.
So, I should have the latest and the most compatible version.

Nothing is perfect and if you are getting errors that means three problems
1) Who wrote SWF is idiot and didn't test an application on the web
2) SWF file had written for old Flash Player version and maybe backward compatibility is not supporting old API (sometimes it’s happening)
3) You are using old version of SWF
1 and 2 I cannot help to resolve it, but for 3 we have a nice workaround
As you may know the browsers caching static contexts as well as SWF files and in most cases when backend API updates and new SWF file(s) loaded on the server you may not get latest version. That is causing Flash Exceptions. The simple way to clear a browser cache and reload a website

Windows Vista blocks downloads from Adobe dot com, unless I disable my UAC.
Some error, like it is not safe, or about some "certificate" from the publisher.
Also, last time, after installing Flash using IE 9.0, when I would open Firefox, and try to watch videos, it was prompting me to install Flash.
So, each browser requires separate Flash?
Another member gave me filehippo and he had used it for years.
I have used downloads dot com for years too. (CNET)

>> So, each browser requires separate Flash?
Each browser uses a slightly different plugin. When you download the flash player from Adobe, it will prompt for OS and browser and you install per browser.
You still shouldn't have any issues with adobe.com though. If you are getting certificate errors and having it blocked, it usually indicates a more fundamental problem on your system. Either you have something wrong with the OS or malware or both or another oddball issue. I have a feeling we are treating the symptom and not the disease here.
I would urge you to give this question a rest for a few days and in the meantime ask a new one in the Vista zone dealing with the blocking of adobe.com and certificate issues. If you fix that, it might make this question moot.

So, from 1. above, since IE and Firefox need different plugins, how many downloads will that be?
A Flash for IE and download an IE plugin too, or does the plugin come with the Flash player?
Same question for Firefox.
Do I need one copy of Flash and then 2 plugins or 2 Flash and 2 plugins?
UAC disabling is the only way I could download from Adobe dot com.
So, neither Flash player (for IE and FF) come with the proper plugin?
Flash installs in one of two ways. There is a browser-based plugin that will try to install when you access a page with flash on it (per browser) and there is also a standalone flash player that also has a plugin to hook into browsers and provide functionality. Depending on system specs, I sometimes cannot download the plugin directly from the browser and thus I resort to the standalone player/plugin from adobe.com. But that combo is browser specific. There is a third option which is just a standalone flash player for desktop functionality with no plugins included but this should be avoided at all costs.
There is also the shockwave player and plugin which is different from flash and should also be installed.
So, you need successful installations of the plugin per browser at a minimum. If the plugins won't install for whatever reason then try the standalone player, latest version, from adobe and not from third parties.
However, at this point you have uninstalled, reinstalled, and reuninstalled so many times that I'm worried there is a deeper underlying problem or you have registry corruption or both. The advice above is mainly correct and should have resolved your problem. That it hasn't indicates the next steps are more invasive, like registry cleaning or a full reinstall of the OS.
Sorry, I wish there was a simple resolution that I could just type out for you and have you follow it.

How does MSE, UAC, and Windows Firewall know that www dot adobe dot com is a trusted site?
If I remember correctly, MSE and the firewall were not the issues.
Disabling the UAC let Flash be downloaded from the Adobe site.

Disabling the UAC let Flash be downloaded from the Adobe site.
Adobe publishes a certificate that verifies authenticity and the browsers and operating systems have to be able to read the cert.
I'm sorry, but this is as far as I can go. I'm not a windows OS guru and even if I were, I skipped vista entirely due to the bugs.

Let me get a new Firefox and a new Flash and go from there.

Since it only happens with Firefox (the errors), I did not think it was an O/S issue.
It might be an OS issue in the sense that Vista is deeply flawed. So you may be seeing some weird interaction between Firefox, Vista and the plugin process.

Is "flawed" (Vista) spelled B I L L G A T E S ?
ASKER
wait.....this problem only started AFTER I got a fresh new copy of Flash and Firefox, to solve another problem.
Everything worked fine before that.

P A U L A L L E N would be my guess.
>> Everything worked fine before that.
I'm sure it did, but I'm not saying "It's Vista's fault entirely" just that you may be seeing something specific to the interaction of the three programs or it's something corrupted on your system.

Well above, you refer to SWF files. You did not define them.
What does SWF stand for?
That blog did not mention error 1009.
You never stated your country.
I could not interpret some of your English.
Closing the questions since the moderators, for some odd reason, says questions can not stay open for a few weeks.
Here are questions open for 6-10 months.

How to enable the option "Use windows API then OCR" in text recognition in QTP
The question still remains, to use the debugger, or not use the debugger.

Nick,
SWF stands for "Shockwave Flash" and refers to a compiled and ready to deploy Flash file.
questions should be closed when they stall and this one is definitely stalled. You didn't have to accept answers though. Deleting it as unanswered would have been fine by me.
The other questions you refer to are abandoned and those users are locked out from answering new questions. The cleanup crew will have to deal with those.
