The only thing gone south since install of flash9 is that I get no sound
at all. Nothing else broken. I have no problems with this site. 

I do have two installs on FC5 of flash to /usr/lib/mozilla-X.X.X and
Firefox-X.X.X 
Do I need both or one or the other? I use Firefox and SeaMonkey, but not
usually at once. Ric
