[Discuss] [RANT] Firefox and Flash 11.2



We all know that Adobe is no longer producing Flash plugins newer than
11.2 for NPAPI. The latest version for Linux is 11.2.202.425. They are
still updating it for security issues. However, recently I am getting
blocking messages in Firefox, so for each page there is a flash I have
to allow it. Also, in managing vSphere, one of the servers requires
Flash 11.5. On the positive note Google Chrome uses the Pepper Plugin
Interface, and does have the newer flash plugin, so in the case of
vSphere, I can use Chrome. But, I tend to prefer Firefox.
