  There seems to be multiple ways web pages check for the version of 
the flash player. I do return the correct string, (now bumped to v8), 
but there is obviously a different way using Javascript. I'm not a 
Javascript programmer kindof dude, but I spent some time yesterday using 
a few web site's version detection with no luck.

  Alot of the Javascript on web pages with Flash isn't "Javascript", 
it's M$ "Jscript", and not 100% compatible with Mozilla. So some of the 
problems are in the scripting code itself. On quite a few sites I can't 
get anything to load at all because the scripting is IE specific.

  Anybody with an idea on this please speak up. I'll implement whatever 
I need to to return the correct behaviors, once I know what they are...
