<div><font face="Arial" size="2"> <div>Avery,</div> <div> </div> <div>My opinion is the Flash player is a harmless a plug-in/helper app.  There are many legitimate sites that use it, although most offer the option of html only.  I do not use any JavaScript of Flash on my site for accessibility reasons.   </div> <div> </div> <div>Ultimately it is your decision whether or not to install Flash, but you could install it and disable it after viewing the site. To disable it in IE, you simply go to: </div> <div>Tools -> Internet Options -> click on the Programs tab, then -> Manage Add-ons, then select Shockwave Flash and click on the 'disable' radio button and if you ever need it again you could enable it.  So, if the concern is that someone my hide malicious code in a flash presentation, you would be able avoid such a possibility by having it disabled.   </div> <div> </div> <div>That is just a suggestion.</div></font></div> <p>Leonard</p> <p> </p> <div><br> </div> <div><span class="gmail_quote">On 4/8/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Avery</b> <<a href="mailto:avery1@houston.rr.com">avery1@houston.rr.com</a>> wrote:</span> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="PADDING-LEFT: 1ex; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid"> <div style="DIRECTION: ltr">Leonard, <br><br>You're correct.
