within a flash click the opposite mouse button and you may change some Adobe flash settings like allowing camera and microphone access.
but once you've done that Adobe dumps a kind of version checker on your system.
you'll see that after the next boot, when a big standalone window with 'An update to your Adobe Flash Player is available" mid screen occurs subject you player is not the latest.
where is this hecking cookie or whatever stored - can't find it in the registry nor within Docs & Settings or elsewhere.
in my opinion a good role model for all spywarer and really disgraceful for such a big company.

re: http://www.java.com/en/download/faq/firefox_newplugin.xml
simple installing the firefox java 1.6 plugin fails.
you get a working version of this tiny plugin as a 'reward' once you installed a full Java version. but that adds up to more than 70MB of data unkown necessity and background running services.
Blackberry converter site is the only one I have use for it anyway to key sign my apps .
are there still efforts made to get the plugin working without the c**p?

the computer shut down sometime in the middle of the night, maybe a windows update- how knows. There was a foxfire update install pending. When I got to the computer this morning I had to restart foxfire and it did the install. But I never had a "restore last session" question or opportunity from foxfire. Favorites is OLD information, not what I use day in, day out; I use the tabs for that. I need last session restored.
