    No, FlashT is a part of Flash, but unfortunately, there is probably some incompatibility between Flash and a beta Windoze.
    I had several similar messages when trying to find a flash plugin on Linux that didn't screw up.

    Flash is not, and will not be, suported for the browser in the metro UI. But flash should work for the normal desktop internet explorer in windows 8.

    I have just started working on a new Windows 8 operating system, and trying to log on to Settlers... NorthIsle... I am getting nowhere trying via my usual Mozilla Firefox ... just re-loaded. The same FlashT error message will not let me proceed. I would appreciate some advice please.

    The game works for me in Win8 in both IE Metro and desktop browsers.
    I have also downloaded chrome and Firefox and works in them as well.
    Best tip is from the main metro interface, click the desktop to get to the old windows 7 style interface and then launch IE and go to thesettlersonline.com you should then have a working game.
    If this fails or you are running windows RT (for instance on the MS Surface tablet) then you may need to amend the IE Whitelist as per the link below.

    Dilbe - flash does work in IE 10 for the metro interface but only for sites on the MS Whitelist

    I've got a Surface RT and have played it on there in the desktop mode without any issues.

    I did have to add the settlers website to the exceptions allow flash to work but this was in January so they might have changed it looking at that link.

    Its perfectly playable but is a little jittery compared to my desktop PC.
