Ezat, thanks for the suggestion and the heads up on needed resources.   
I doubt it can be worse that Windows VISTA.

Are you able to use Flashplayer9 with linux firefox.  My Flash 7 works  
fine on both linux and freebsd firefox but I can not get Flash 9 to  
run reliably. Hopefully, I am behind on the latest flash info on  
FreeBSD.

Thanks,

ed
