[gui-talk] Adobe flash player?

At the rist of misleading you, Here is what I think I know about the Flash 
player.

1. It plays in an Internet Explorer window.

2. Downloading it can be tricky if you are blind and have certain security 
settings activated. This is probably why Ray experienced a link that 
wouldn't download. One must click this Golden-colored, or yellow security 
bar at the top of the page, and for me, it required sighted help.

3. This sort of problem will also occur for other Adobie downloads, such as 
Acrobat Reader.

4. This is an accessibility issue with Adobie, since the accessibility link 
at the top of the page isn't much help.
