Come on, this is a valid question for both groups....

It's not ff's flash problem, it's this idiotic website that my co.
contracts from for training, that's hostile to anything other than IE. As
I said, I try to go to it in ff, I say "launch the training", and it sits
there forever. In konqi, I get to the intro, then page forward a few
pages, then the "real" "training" is in flash.

Stupid freakin' HR types who want to be in bloody movies, and think flash
is how you train, rather than that this training is *all* written, like I
need a damn movie to see how to type in commands, or not do things....

Y'know, like when I googled on how to get flash into konqi, and most of
the hits on the first page were from a You-Tube flash video on what to
type... I kid you not!
