can't get Safari to work with 9.0.28.0

I can't get Safari (2.0.4) to work with 9.0.28.0, even after multiple installs and permission repairs (which does change permissions on installed files). Firefox (1.5.0.9) does work fine, however. When I replace the plugin and the .xpt file in /Library/Internet Plugins with version 9.0.26.0 Safari works, but Firefox doesn't. Adobe's website is hopeless for troubleshooting help. Anyone else seeing this issue? If so, is it a problem with Flash Player or with Safari? This is a rather serious issue since I don't know how else to play Flash content on the Web.   
System Info:10.4.8, quad G5, 2.5 GB

can't get Safari to work with 9.0.28.0 - jolit

I had the same problem for a while. Then I reran the uninstaller, and that time it deleted ALL files from everywhere. I noticed before that there was ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/flashplayer.xpt left over after previous uninstaller, for some reason. Restarting and installing 9.0.28 afterwards worked right away (new files were put in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/), Safari showed flash just fine. I did the preference repairing, they were fixed, and Safari and other browsers continued to work.
