Just my $.02.. it would behoove all of us to complain to whomever runs sites still using Adobe! What awful nightmares they've generated for decades, vis-a-vis the web. HTML5 has finally arrived, capable of doing all the stuff for which we supposedly had to turn to "proprietary blob" Flash. #ditchFlash!
I'm also glad to see Bob got a successful solution from the list.
Speaking of various browsers used.. I saw in a Linux magazine that Opera had bit the dust (was news to me.. but I used to keep it installed because I had it save a password which I subsequently forgot, and couldn't find a way to crack it's cheezy encryption! So for one site to use my login, I ran Opera (danged fast browser btw, used it way back when on Win98 dreck..) as I never got around to figuring out the config process for snort, so as to sniff my own pw. I DO have a point here-- the magazine article was about

"
but perusing otter-browser.org further... oh NO, they use SourceForge!? Did they not hear of the sellout? Eek. A good idea anyways, if anyone has spare time (?) it seems like a decent place to volunteer one's coding.
Happy equinox.
