Constant trouble with swf/flash

[Michael Schuerig <schuerig@acm.org>]

On my system, Flash (.swf) animations are constantly hanging Konqueror. 
I always have to kill nspluginviewer to at least see the non-flash 
parts of some sites. A case in point is

http://www.doonesbury.com/strip/dailydose/index.htm

The plugin does work in Netscape 4.77, but ironically renders Mozilla 
unusable.

Any suggestions what the problem is and what to do about it?

Thanks,
Michael
