1. Flash I don't have or use.

2. PDFs can be created by *NON-ADOBE* software. PDF's (well most of
them) can be opened by non-Adobe PDF-type software.

3. The Russian's web site is that of a devote cyclist. Most of the films
on his web site are of cycling or about cycling. Most of the oldish PDF
files are about Linux and in Russian. I do not consider his site
presents a malicious danger to me.


Warren, it is senseless you wasting your valuable time trying to make me
do what you want. The system here just does not work like that - perhaps
elsewhere but certainly not here.
