Well, that was interesting. Nice little Mac-killer you built there. (;

After noting another Flasher was able to access the pages, I tried again
under NT, things went fine (I didn't load beyond the main movie). So,
assuming the DNS error cleared, I went over to the Mac OS8.6 NN4.08 F4
config--WHAM! Hard crashed on load and render of entry page HTML, noted
it began loading Java (needed to execute JavaScript, loads once per
session as needed).

Suspecting a possible conflict with yesterday's Font Manager Update 1.0
(Apple released update to cure corrupt FOND issues, Netscape users
reporting minor issues), I slid over to a second Mac that is a virgin
stock configuration, OS8.6 NN4.08 F4 --WHAM! Hard crash.

(note: all cache and history files are auto-cleared on each restart of
any browser for these machines, so it is a non-factor)

Reboot the Mac, launch NN3.04 F3, page and primary SWF loads fine.

Launch IE4.5, no plugins, main page loads fine, receive no-plugin error
from the browser (as expected).

Quit, reinstall F3 plugin, relaunch IE4.5 F3, both entry and SWF loads
fine.

Suspecting the F4 plugin, I removed it and relaunched NN4.08 less
plugins, entry page loads fine, SWF will not load, browser instructs no
plugin (as expected).

Quit, installed F3, relaunched NN4.08 F3--WHAM! Hard crash as it parses
your JavaScript.
