there's a couple of flash to html5 plugins for firefox and that work 
fine (I visit youtube often and they work well) ... true enough though 
that there are plenty of sites that haven't seen the light. now perhaps 
mozilla's strong arming will prompt a move away from perhaps the most 
insecure piece of software on the planet. my comments to bbc's new look 
a few months ago included a rant about flash content ... javascript is a 
close second.
