Page 4 doesn't load in IE6 either. I put that together quickly so I
suspect that it's missing some bit of compatibility code, that's why I

I'm seeing the flicker in FF2, FF3 Mac and FF3 and FF3.5 in XP. It
looks to me like this is a FF/Flash issues that's intermittent at
best.

Thanks to everyone for the input.
