Web Pages Just Show Black

Game-related sites like http://www.xineph.com/aze229d/ show just a black page as some use Shockwave, which now only works on 32-bit browsers.
Install Shockwave on a 32-bit browser
  1. If you only have a 64-bit web browser installed (for example, Firefox Quantum), install a 32-bit version of the browser.
  2. In the 32-bit browser, navigate to http://get.adobe.com/shockwave and install Shockwave.
  3. When playing the game, ensure you use this browser when accessing game-related websites. (If necessary, change your default browser to this 32-bit browser.)
