I hate it when I do that.

Can you set that up to only load libflashplayer.so to the user's local
.mozilla/plugins to limit the damage every time another exploit is found?
I prefer to keep it out of the accounts I do real work on, just load it in my
kids' account for playing and an account I use for accessing sites that
insist on using flash.

Don't like having their setup stuff loaded globally, but I decided it
was not the same level risk.

Now if I could only figure out how to get my login dialog to behave.

Thanks again.
