How to manage plug-ins that are browser specific when you have multiple browsers on your system?
I must keep several browsers installed on my system because I maintain a web site and have to test it with different browsers.
Adobe seems to make a different Flash plug-in for Firefox than it makes for IE. If I install the plug-in for Firefox is it going to mess up the Flash setup I already have working in IE?
Surely other web developers have run into this problem, so I'm figuring there's a solution.
Thanks,

There are separate downloads for the two plugins, but Adobe has made updating smoother by installing an auto-updater that handles both. It only seems to run when I restart Windows, but that might be configurable (I haven't checked). Anyway, no worries on interference, they coexist quite happily.
(When downloading any Flash player, be careful not to install unwanted additional software such as security suites...)
