Firefox and Flash
I’ve been an avid Firefox fan since it first arrived on the scene, especially after I spent weeks trying to remove spyware from a friend’s PC- and later, my own PC. Looks like the honeymoon might be over. Aside from the fact that it’s a memory hog, there’s this Flash problem. Seems like Flash links may stop working spontaneously, and I have not as of yet found any solution. This is especially annoying for me, since I have been using Firefox for everything except the occasional website which requires IE, thanks to those inconsiderate/ignorant, standards-noncompliant designer/developer types. This includes a web page that I built for myself, containing a Flash front end to a SQL Server-backed project management tool. On the plus side, I downloaded the latest nightly build of Mozilla (”Deer Park??”), and the problem has gone away, at least for now.
