CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying segment3.swf to your appropriate Windows system directory. Microsoft typically does not release Windows SWF files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing segment3.swf and all other SWF files for Windows. An incorrectly installed SWF file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
