Using Seamonkey 1.1.14 and PrefBar 4.1.2., when I try to disable Flash

Failed to disable/enable flash plugin. Maybe you are running a flash
movie in your browser, and so the plugin is locked, or you just don’t
have write permission to the directory
C:\WINDOWS\system32\Macromed\Flash\npswf32.dll
As far as I can tell, there is no flash movie running in the browser
(about:blank) and I don't know why I wouldn't have write permission to
the directory since Flash does work.
Any ideas?
prefbar has its own newsgroup, where you can get better help there:
http://prefbar.mozdev.org/newsgroup.html
I moved the npswf32.dll to
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Mozilla\plugins and
renamed the original to npswf32.dll.old. Flash still works and I can now
disable it with PrefBar.
JD,
Your solution is the only one I have found to work with PrefBar, however
keep in mind when you upgrade SeaMonkey to a new security release
version you have to manually remove SeaMonkey (Add/Remove Programs)
before installing the upgrade. When you use this method of upgrading
the uninstaller will ask you twice if you want to remove all of
SeaMonkey, the first time it is to remove all the SeaMonkey files, click
yes, the second time is to remove all the files and folders in the
SeaMonkey program folder, click no.
If you allow SeaMonkey to use the automatic installer it will remove all
files and folder contents in the SeaMonkey program folder including all
plugins, extensions, themes and other add-ons you have installed to the
program folder.
