Keith, I, too, have an aversion to being forced to do things, like accept HTML mail when plain text is perfectly adequate ;-) but in this case I would say that Flash is pretty much a standard plug-in to have, and is used by many websites to display animations and effects. Flash originates from Macromedia and the current version (for Macs at least) is 7 for OS X and can be downloaded from: <http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/ download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash&P5_Language=English> It simply installs a plug-in into the plug-ins folder in your web browsers. If you use Internet Explorer, then I can assure you that you have much more junk from MS installed in every crazy little nook and cranny already ! Flash is not some monsterware ready to take over your system...
