Well, for me, this does absolutely nothing. Of course, from the title, I
know what it's supposed to do, and I have to agree that it's pretty funny.
Somebody did it to me once. I had all sorts of pop-up killing in place, so
aparently, it didn't do its thing propperly.
Anyway, on my copy of Phoenix, it does nothing. That's probably because I
think that Flash is a tool of Satan, and therefore, I don't have it
installed in my main browser. Seriously. If a site uses Flash for anything
other than small ads, it gets its own entry in my hosts file and I never see
it again.
When I loaded it in IE, it bounced around the screen, but then I killed it
with the task manager. I have yet to run into a flash program that I
couldn't kill.
Of course, I'm running NT 5.1 (xp). I would iagine that it's a lot harder
to kill in 9X.
