No doubt about patching every security hole, but... ¿is Flash 8 worthy for Mozilla or Firefox users? I've read something odd about Mozilla, Adblock and Flash 8...

I like how they made it easy to upgrade. Click download and it's done in a few seconds (broadband connection).

EDIT: Okay, that apparently was only for IE, for Firefox I need to download an installer. 😒

I have upgraded it too. Seems to work just fine under Opera.

I downloaded that update and haven't noticed any anomalies with Flashblock (I think that's the one I use)
