You are using a beta product. All bets are off. Post your questions about
IE8 beta in its newsgroup:

microsoft.public.internetexplorer.beta

Yes, recently several of my friends complained that they
can not download flash player, even with plain old IE7 -
and I've verified this.
For now, my solution is to download the fplayer debug package from
Adobe support site.
That contains (among other curious things) an .exe installer, that Just
Works.

Regards,
