You can do without it. For Fx, you can simply download the EXE here:
<http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe>

I always use that route since, luckily for me, I discovered a while ago
that the 'preferred' update route always failed for me. It just erased any
existing version.

Don't you just DETEST flash and look forward to the time when it can be
dumped for ever? Java has already ben abolished here. It hasn't been
missed.

Cheers,

Roy

My sentiments exactly. I dumped JRE a long time ago thanks to the
RedSheriff incident.

John Corliss BS206. Because of all the Googlespam, I block all posts
sent through Google Groups. I also block as many posts from anonymous
remailers (like x-privat.org for eg.) as possible due to forgeries
posted through them.

No ad, CD, commercial, cripple, demo, nag, share, spy, time-limited,
trial or web wares OR warez for me, please. Adobe Flash sucks, DivX rules.
