Gee, flashplayer....
I reported a bug to the firefox team early last week. *Every* time I tried to
use flash under either 3.0.14 or 3.5.3, firefox crashed. Hard.
They *finally* found the bug: there's an undocumented dependency on libcurl, so
if you install the curl rpm (both, if you're running 64-bit), it'll work.
