Like some previous posters pointed out, for many things you need the adobe flashplayer.

But I also use the secunia outdated program checker, and I get alerts that my flash player is out of dates at seemingly the speed of light. And its a pain in the butt to be always removing each and every piece of the flashplayer.

I already dropped the free adobe pdf program and replaced it with the far slimmer foxit reader. Why can't adobe learn to write secure code and learn to take its old garbage out when they have to write a new version to fix their security holes.

yes you may have to allow more stuff in noscript. I don't use that and both links worked for me on the first try.

That game loads for me but then just goes to a blank white screen. :confused:
Do i need to allow something other than armorgames.com in NoScript?

I guess i should have been clearer in my other post. Some games load just fine after the update, some didn't. I had no problem with any of them before this last update.
It took probably 10 tries to get http://www.miniclip.com/games/baseball/en/baseball.swf to load but now it works. I still can't get http://www.nitrome.com/games/icebreakergathering/ working.

Maybe the problem was because i did try the above first & it' didn't work. It seemed to install fine but when i went to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ to check it still said i had the older version, so i installed from the Adobe page like i normally do.
So for whatever reason some flash was very slow loading for me. It seems to be better now as i've tried several more games & all seems good now, including that icebreaker game.

Does the latest flash enable hardware acceleration under Linux for the nVidia ION chipset?
