I have one, and only one, radio station I'm streaming 'bout half the day, weekdays - wqxr.org NYC, and it keeps complaining I need a newer flashplayer. I click the x in the pink box, it goes away, and everything's fine - it' just annoying. Doesn't happen anywhere else I'm streaming. Is this an artifact of it expecting an even newer version, or something cached on my system, or...? mark

Looks like they were listening. It doesn't change my opinion about luser corporations who think it's ok to build a flash-based management interface for their wares (looking at you, VMware).
