Details

seen on windows commercial builds: 2001-08-29-11-trunk & 2001-08-30-05-trunk 

-install and launch app
-goto Help | About:Plugins

all the various plugins from 4.x were not picked up

trying to use one of the plugins expected to be there, say Quicktime does 
not work.

-restart the browser
-again check About:Plugins

now the plugins are there and are functioning.
looks ok on my 2001083003 trunk win NT. Quicktime, acrobat and shockwave were 
picked up.
i'm using win98, perhaps that makes a difference?
nope, just tried a 98 too with today's trunk, working fine. Try with a new 
profile? I am using the same one from y'day...but you might give it a try.
I can not reproduce this now....I tried reinstalling then using a new profile. I 
tried reinstalling then using an existing profile.  I swear I saw this bug with 
yesterdays build also, 'cause I was about to file a bug against Flash. But I 
checked about:plugins first and they weren't there. I restarted and they were 
picked up.


hm..let's keep a watch on this test. Thnx!
