For probably the first time ever, I just had a look at that. And I'm asking myself - why does OOo have nsplugins support at all? It's an office suite - I use it mostly to read documents other people send me, and because antiword is a little too minimal. What could OOo possibly do in my specific case that requires browser plugins? It's not like I'm in the habit of embedding java and flash applets into impress presentations -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
