The development of Internet has led to an exponential growth in the number of pages with interactive multimedia content and we have Adobe tools to thank for it.

Adobe Shockwave Player is a plugin for web-browsers that enables them to play multimedia information such as videos, 3D animations, games and more.

Through a simple installer, Adobe Shockwave Player will be integrated into Web browser such as Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator or Mozilla Firefox that will detect it and download the necessary components to be executed.

You should not confuse the player with the ShockWave Flash, They are different and you need both to see the content of certain pages.
