If you use Firefox to browse DV and you get a warning about Flash.....

Due to constant security issues with Adobe's Flash plug-in, Mozilla have decided to block all versions by default on every web page. That means that they've changed the setting for the Flash plug-in in Firefox to "Ask to Activate" so any time you go on a site that uses Flash, a message will pop up at the top of the screen which basically says "this site uses Flash, do you want to activate it?" and you can decide what to do.

 

On DV certain member groups can attach files to posts in certain forum sections. The default file uploader uses Flash, hence if you're a Firefox user you'll see the warning about activating Flash. It's safe to activate on here, but if you don't want to, you can switch to the alternate file uploader that doesn't use Adobe Flash. Just click "Try our basic uploader" in the Attach Files section to do that.
