      It come in handy occasionally; I have it installed for IE, and the Chrome "Display this page in an IE based tab" does the rest. That way I can get it when I need it and it keeps it's rancid nose well away from everything else!

      I have learnt that you can not make someone love you, all you can do is stalk them and hope they panic and give in. Apathy Error: Don't bother striking any key.

          Chrome now has bundled Flash. The only reason I use "display in IE", is that one of my banks refuses to recognize me when on Chrome. Otherwise, good riddance IE :-)

                Why are you so down on Flash?...you believe that manipulative propaganda that Apple is putting out? Those who cannot be bent to serve the mighty Jobs must be destroyed?

                  No.. it just kept misbehaving (enabling "Launch at Startup"-s that I disabled etc), and I couldn't convince Windows Defender that the changes were not being made by a "trusted" application but by an application that is in fact not trusted at all

                        Yea I'd like to but I can't, they don't support my OS, and "don't support" means "actively refuses to install"

                          I went years without flash or at least I had flashblock on giving me the choice to allow flash if I wanted.

                            It installs on XP, Vista and 7 so you're using something older than that?...Millennium?...'98?
