     I've had just the opposite experience. For example,
http://www.flowgo.com/rsubf.cfm?id=hfnbwbiShprpwnfDuxc&l=78&p=19376&d=10-18-01

   Konqueror w/flash plays it well, might take some time to load, 
could have some pauses on a slow connection, but it'll play smoothly 
on replay.  Mozilla (9.4 or 9.5) plays it way too fast, sound is 
gibberish.

    Flash was installed and setup automagically by 8.1's install on 
my system. Didn't need to do a thing. Still some pages, not too many, 
still pop up that damn 'shockwave page popup'
