[ale] Microsoft can brag about something other than the X-Box now...

[David B.]

I have Flash installed on both Konqueror & FireFox, but also have
Flashblock plug-in in-use for FF 2.0.0.5 (yast doesn't have 2.0.0.7 yet
"I'm lazy") which is great to turn on and off the flash. Also when Flash
was in beta last year I ran the stable version on FF and beta on
Konqueror. Still the M$ site doesn't have auto play enabled for Flash
(curious). Excel programmers are they possibly left-over Windowz "ME"
programmers??? OH No that's right they where put on Vista, Oh well:-)

That doesn't happen very often, though.  YouTube is about the only place I care to see anything Flash-based, and Flashblock does allow whitelists.
