Well I'm not having a problem with the flash version.  The problem for me 
seems to be that Konqueror is not using the plugin.  I am pretty sure I did 
what I was supposed to: untared the files, put them in ~/.mozilla/plugins, 
put that dir in the Konq settings, scanned for new pugins, and still no joy.  
What's up?  Does it matter where I put the files?  As long as I tell 
Konqueror where to scan it should pick up the libflashplayer.so and 
ShockwaveFlash.class file shouldn't it work?  As far as I can tell Konqueror 
can't read any part of a website that has a *.swf.
Thanks for pointers
