Hello! I quite agree Alan. But the big problem with most adfilters is that they are indiscriminate. They can not tell a graphic from our friends at Amazon, from an ad that our friend, and myself find obnoxious. The problem with Flash is that it has become the favorite of these truly desperate people, online advertisers. Now if Adobe would understand that and take a big hint.... Never mind, good advice. ----- Gregg C Levine gregg.drw...@gmail.com "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again." ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to lists...@vm.marist.edu with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
