If you are using firefox, one thing you can do is after you have
dowloaded and installed Adobe's flash plugin, download the
MediaPlayerConnectivity plugin for firefox
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/446 .  Then configure
the MediaPlayerConnectivity plugin to use gnash as its default flash
player.  Afterwards, anytime you view a web page with a .swf file on
it, the file will be replaced by a black rectangle.  You can click on
the rectangle to play the .swf file in standalone gnash, or you can
close the rectangle and the .swf file will play in your browser using
the Adobe plugin.
