WBW5, Opera / Firefox with Linux dropdown problems

As I've written earlier, the drop down menus seem to suck at least some people running Linux with FFox or Opera.

Just to let you all 'victims of this problem' know, as there are some flash-crap over the buttons, I managed to fix the menus by installing FlashBlock on my FFox and by banning flash from the WBW. At least everything seem to be working now as it should be. This is quite rude way to manage the current situation, but without it, WBW is quite unusable to me.

I believe this problem is not the most important to you crew-guys, but I really hope that some sunny day it will be fixed. I know there are not many users around with this problem, but there are still some. And hey, I'm at least sponsor also!

Good luck with the new version, I like how it looks, but It's rendering on the browser side still bit slow. With this FlashBlocker I can at least use the site as usual, so there's no need to hurry with this from my perspective.

Cheers.

Yeah, BIG problems. I guess Apple doesn't know how to make good software.

You dummy! You have to put peanut putter between your processor and the cooler!! The CPU works faster that way.

I am aware of the problem it has something todo with flash on linux, it doesn't support transparency.

I hope to include a fix in patch #3 of WBW.
