Hello,
I have several questions about media.

1. How can we play FLASH web site inside SL?? Since the media browser is automatically loaded but the web has FLASH will not be shown.

2. Can we use normal web browser (IE or FireFox) as the default browser instead of using media browser?? If we can program this, it will be great!

Thanks
Alex

1) You would need a Flash plugin for the Mozilla varient that SL uses. There isn't one available.

2) Yes, you can set your default external browser to open any links you click in SL. I'm fairly certain there's a checkbox in SL's browser (I want to say bottom left) to set this to happen.
