Are you able to use other flash sites in conkeror?

Sabetts informed me that he named it after the brand of beer.  Further
research revealed that Conkeror Beer is chestnut beer.  Horse chestnuts
are also called conkers, because of a game called conkers that one plays
with horse chestnuts.  Within the game conkers, the winner is termed the
conkeror.  The etymology is shared with words such as "canker",
"cancer", "calculus", etc, the origin of which means "rock".  Whereas
"konqueror" is a silly made-up word.
