Hmmm... I switched to Firefox to take the Cisco router course that I'm 
taking just now.  Logged into http://cisco.netacad.net only to find that 
Flash didn't work.  Works fine at http://www.nasa.gova and any other 
site on the internet.  Had to send a bug report to 
<flashplayerunix at macromedia.com> to report the problem.  Works fine now.  
Just scored 70% plus on most of the early sections after spending three 
years working on Linux and BSD routing and firewalling.  

Nice browser.  The UK internet is alive with people giving advice about 
how to install Firefox and how to delete Indernet Exploder.  Similar 
things happening in France and Germany.
