Macromedia Flash based Cafe Press Media Player does not work in Mozilla 1.7 and
1.7.3 running on Win98 and WinXP respectively (don't know about other OSs).  The
Media Player window displays, but the music does not load or play.  The Media
Player works properly with MS Internet Explorer 6.0.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to any page on Cafe Press that is selling a music CD and offers track
samples.  http://www.cafepress.com/ikarus.8607646 is as good as any.
2. Click on one of the track sample links.


Actual Results:  
The Cafe Press Media Player window appeared, but the sample sound did not load
or play.

Expected Results:  
The sample sound should have loaded and played.

Using Shockwave Flash 7.0 r19.

A complaint to Cafe Press seems to have cleared up the problem.  Apparently the
bug was at their end of things.  A number of other people complained of having
the same problem with various browsers.
