I agree with David. If you're concerned about Flash video, don't install
Flash. I don't have Flash installed on my workstation, and I'm still
able to watch most YouTube videos. Sometimes I count myself lucky (in
terms of time saved) if a certain video won't play in my browser. : )
If you want to watch Flash videos, though, probably the safest bet is to
install Google Chrome, which embeds a "Pepper" flash-compatible plugin
[0]. Mozilla has shown no interest in supporting this plugin [1],
though, so Chrome would be your only way to get it.
Regards,
Jim
