There's gotta be a better way? Flash insinuates itself into the
browser? So why use Internet Exploder / Outhouse Express? Use
Mozilla and the "flash block" extension.

That way all flash scripts are blocked unless you allow them.

And the idea that we should go to a web site, enable scripts, just to
set privacy settings? Get real. How do we know that Flash is really
not accessing the camera/mic? This is set on software on their
machine? Am I the only one that has a problem with that?

Use a good firewall . . . .

Roger that. If it uses flash - I don't want to see it.
