[cut] Hi Paul, I dont' have Flashblock on SM (I have it on FF), so I went to the plugins settings and changed the QuickTime option to always active instead of ask (it was not asking at all). Now it's working. I think there's a little bug in the activation process when the QuickTime plugin is not loaded, because the same settings worked with other plugins such as Flash or PDF viewers.
