Excuse me? The flash installer consists of copying two files
into the plugin directory. Yes, it does install and yes it does run
and yes it does get stuck and follow you around until you shut the whole
damn thing down. I actually had to issue a "killall mozilla-bin" to
get it to shut up.
Sooo... I guess you are "sort of right". Flash doesn't
work with Mozilla. At least not properly. It almost sort of works
and it thinks it does... :-/
Guess I better "deinstall" it (deinstallation tool: "rm -f").
Gets annoying when I trip over a flash site.
