Package:           konqueror
Version:           KDE 2.1.1 
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

Whenever I go to a site with Flash a new window always opens up going to www.macromedia.com.  I use realplayer but not flash.  It would be nice to prevent konqueror from always opening up the URL to download the plugin without having to disable plugins completely.  Perhaps some configuration option to just ignore plugins that are not installed rather than constantly opening new windows.  When I go to macromedia's site for example I get three seperate windows all the same to download flash.
