Please, not that horrible thread again.  Just do what's in the Handbook 
(http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/desktop-browsers.html), 
and Flash 10 works fine with native Firefox on FreeBSD 8.

It works well.  And the Java plugin works too.  The only problem I see 
with Windows Firefox on Wine is that it takes a double-click to close 
Firefox windows or tabs.
