    Thanks Claude. Yes, I do have Flash installed:

    [root@moe ~]# rpm -qa | grep flash
    mozilla-flash-7.0.25-1.2.fc4.rf
    flash-plugin-7.0.25-1

    I've run 'setup' and it appears successful:

    [root@moe ~]# /usr/lib/flash-plugin/setup

    Registering flashplayer as a XPCOM component in
    /usr/lib/mozilla-1.7.10

    Registering flashplayer as a XPCOM component in
    /usr/lib/firefox-1.0.6
    Setup is complete.

    Still no videos from www.foxnews.com though.
