That's too bad. I wanted to see it.

Using Flash for little interactive widgets is one thing. Using it for an ENTIRE site, or for navigation menus, or to play videos, is maddness. HTML5 can support all that natively.

Flash plug-in = virus on the computer by the end of the day.

Note the article is 8 years old. Viruses have been hiding in Flash ever since. It's gotten really bad lately. About 80% (eighty) of all infected Windows machines in the last 6 months were infected through Flash or Acrobat Reader JS vulnerability.

Damn Adobe. :x

BTW I work in computer security. I'm the guy tracking all this stuff down behind the scenes.

Zelda, sorry for hijacking your topic. :(

Sounds like you need NoScript + Firefox! Also, a Mac.
