An answer to this question and an apology for missing the question the
first time.  

Neither.  I use good old Fvwm, but actually launch MS Firefox from the
Rox filer.

I was surprised at how easy this was to set up.  I don't say it is right
or clever, but it does work, and I'm not so very interested in Flash that
I want to spend ages fiddling to make it work in the other ways that have
been suggested.  I'm getting older so like to pick my fights with care!
