MArk, hope u are doing the same steps:

right click inside the movie clip nd select 'print'
click 'cancel'
then, right click and select 'about...'

rite?

The testcase doesn't seem to be there. Is this an internal site?

Build 2001062504 win32 worksforme.
This could have been something unrelated to plugin as the 
'About Macromedia Flash Player 5' opens another  browser window
changing URL to http://poppy.macromedia.com/~maguirre/content/falsh.html per
reporter's email.

with a pre-moz0.9.2 2001062815 win32 installer sea build this works for me

Could this be printer driver related?
