Flash is responsible for slow load times.. Being a resource ***** with numerous memory leaks causes problems for both your system and your connection(as evidenced that things become faster once you restart your browser after being on a page with flash)..

Flash is the New ActiveX.. MS has tried to release silverlight(What Netflix uses and surprisingly already on version 3) to solve problems.. it does load faster.. but it's also MS and if you run linux you can't watch anything.. online video viewing is at its prime and i'm sure other companies will try to get in.

Wait, so if you download this silverlight thing on a lets say Vista 64-Bit, would it sorta replace flash and let stuff run a little faster?

no. silverlight is like flash. it's a tool that websites use to display video. it's totally dependent on the website. some use java, some use flash, some use silverlight.

    • Wide Receiver: Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers – 85.3 One of the more shocking developments of the 2025 NFL season has been the Carolina Panthers’ ascension to the top of the NFC South, which they achieved with Sunday’s win over the Buccaneers. Perhaps nobody has made a bigger difference than former eighth overall pick Tetairoa McMillan, who continued to be a steady presence in the Panthers’ offense. McMillan caught six passes for 73 yards and a touchdown in the win Tight End: Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers – 91.1 Evans only saw the field for 16 snaps, but he was efficient in his limited playing time. He caught all three of his targets for 23 yards on just six receiving snaps while also grading well in pass protection (72.2 grade) and as a run-blocker (68.4) Edge Defender: Nic Scourton, Carolina Panthers – 77.9 The former second-rounder out of Texas A&M has been a force along the Panthers’ defensive line, and he was a key contributor in Carolina’s huge win over the Buccaneers. Scourton recorded two stops as a run-defender and added another while in coverage. Scourton also tallied his sixth sack of the year while contributing another pressure to the mix Safety: Lathan Ransom, Carolina Panthers – 75.7 Another Carolina Panther on this week’s list, Ransom has typically been stronger in run defense — he carries an 85.2 grade in that field on the season. But Sunday against the Buccaneers was his best day in coverage. Ransom intercepted his only target, which wound up being the game-winner that put the Panthers in the driver’s seat in the NFC South
