Everytime I visit this page, I get this error. I did not particularly care to
install quick time, but I finally broke down and did it. First, Firefox can not
do the automatic install. Second, after a manual install, I still get the message.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Just visit http://members.cox.net/discenzafarms/. There are flash elements on
the page which must be triggering this error condition.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
You will get the following error message: "Additional plugins are required to
display all of the media on this page".

Expected Results:  
First, I would like the option of not having to install plugins that Firefox
thinks I need. I should be able to acknowledge it and turn it off if I chose.
Secondly, the automatic install should work if I chose to try it (at least for
the most popular plugins like quicktime, flash, acrobat ..... Finally, if for
any reason the install does not fix the problem, the user should also have the
ability to turn off the warning messages for specific (NOT ALL) error
conditions.  Thanks, -Rick.

What's up with losing my bookmarks once a month?? This is a major problem, one
that will certainly cause you to lose clients. Never saw that before and it is a
pain. Is there a fix in the works? Other than that, I love the product. Thanks,
-Rick.
