Oh so THAT's why Wikipedia insists on loading that damn Java applet, instead of the VLC plugin I installed. Cortado crashes MY browser (and sometimes my whole computer) all the time, to the extent that even as a long-time editor who knows something about these matters, and a fairly tech-proficient user, I now just avoid videos on Wikipedia entirely. That should change now I have FF 3.5 (but I can't test it now because I'm at work with 3.0) Pete / the wub _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
