Firefox, Flash, java

[Clint Harshaw <charshaw@presby.edu>]

Hi all:

I see there is now an upgrade for Firefox to 1.5 in etch:

mozilla-firefox:
  Installed: 1.0.7-1
  Candidate: 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.1-4
  Version table:
     1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.1-4 0
        500 http://ftp.us.debian.org etch/main Packages
 *** 1.0.7-1 0
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

At the moment it is among the "held back" packages on my system. A 
couple of months ago, I recall several people having problems with the 
Flashplayer plugin, Java, and AdBlock when trying to use Firefox 1.5.

Have those problems been resolved, or should I continue to let it be 
held back, rather than upgrading?

Thanks,
Clint
