Flash content simply doesn't show up. I would love to not have to use Flash - - - I have thought it was garbage software from when I first read about it and ran into it at least 10 years ago. Its always been about pretty pictures and dazzle with precious little substance but most web designers seem to have fallen totally in love with it and can't function without it. Any ideas as to where I could let the powers that be know that this POS software just needs to be trashed (permanently!!! please)? (If someone wants to suggest Firefox, their support forums are a total boondoggle so I would quite rather not waste time there.) Maybe someone could tell me how to just force all flash content to appear in a different format? (I'm fishing for ideas on how to get rid of this malware!)
