I've installed the Flash 11 (latest) activex plugin debug version from the Adobe Flash site (I'm using IE to launch the content on Windows 7). I'm trying to see if I can determine what's causing a 3rd party flash file from working correctly.
However, I can't seem to find any documentation as to how to actually use or configure the debugger for this version. I've looked all over the Flash site but perhaps I am blind. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

"So there are no configuration options and no way to manually start the debugger? "
Second question first: the "debugger" is the "Flash Player debug version" - when you installed it, you have the debugger in place.
Configure it so it should display the traces that the code spits out, in a logfile.
The comment provided by "keeg" tells where the info is (here it is again):
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/configure-debugger-version-flash-player.html
or here: (they are pretty much the same)
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flex/using/WS2db454920e96a9e51e63e3d11c0bf69084-7ed6.html
mm.cfg contents should be a textfile like this:
ErrorReportingEnable=1
TraceOutputFileEnable=1

You simply go to the site and view the content that needs to be debugged. A error console will pop up if there are any errors generated by the flash movie you are viewing. Basically the debug version just replaces your normal version in your browser(s)
