I assume they are web plugins, such as Lightspark or Gnash. > Are all of the plug-ins free software? No, AFAIU. The other problem is that these plug-ins are not available on free systems, and I want to find out why. > Is any of then a web-browser? I can't think of one, but it would certainly be possible.
