 Should I worry about using this browser to watch my Cnet and youtube videos 
 or should I not trust it?

For youtube flash video, I do recommend moving to html5 (G5 macs e
able to play ~8 of HD1080 videos at one time without any freezing) and
use TenFourFox browser. Or, as an alternative, using sfrom.net to
download flash-only stuff and watch it.
For Cnet, I never used it and don't know what it is.

A question about Flast....

2012-02-02 Thread Scottls
I have a few PPC Macs that I still use everyday because I can't afford
to get any newer Apple computers. My worry is, my best PowerMac G5
with dual 2GHz processors and 7GB of RAM is having trouble running
Flash 10 smoothly using my Firefox and Safari browsers, yet I found it
runs much smoother on my OLD Real Player's web browser. It skips
nearly no frames at all and is able to play at much higher resolutions
even in full screen. I'm worried it is because Real Player's browser
is not nearly as secure as Firefox and Safari. Should I worry about
using this browser to watch my Cnet and youtube videos or should I not
trust it?
