FWIW, I've never experienced any konq crashes that I could attribute to a 
flash animation.

I do have the plugin registered multiple times. Any idea how to fix that? I 
couldn't find a bug report listed for that issue.

I'm not too familiar with the KDE file association business. Why should 
adjusting the file associations be unnecessary? I would appreciate it if you 
could point me to some (technical) KDE documentation that explains how all 
that works.
