When you click on the buttons in Macromedia Flash Player it should take you to
another page but with the Active X plugin installed nothing happens. Once the
nsIMozAxPlugin.xpt and the npmozax.dll files are removed Macromedia Flash Player
works again.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install ActiveX control plug-in from
http://www.iol.ie/~locka/mozilla/plugin.htm#links
2.Go to http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/welcome/
3.Click on the buttons in the Macromedia Flash Player area

Actual Results:  
When you click on the buttons in Macromedia Flash Player it should take you to
another page but with the Active X plugin installed nothing happens.

Expected Results:  
The ActiveX plugin works correctly but causes a conflict with Macromedia Flash
Player.
