I just went the to Mozilla/Firefox plugins page and downloaded the
latest flash rpm (flash-plugin-9.0.31.0-release)  I installed it,
restarted firefow and now it doesn't hang on the site I mentioned.

Looks like it is fixed. Thanks for the tip. Now... if I could just get
Adobe's acrobat reader for linux to work, by resolving the gtk
dependancy...

:) Dave
