You know what's /really/ annoying? If they really feel the need for a 
"view-only" plugin (pfft, can't work really), they could've used a java 
applet instead. That way it'd be cross platform - I've seen this done.

Of course, this annoyed me enough that I hit view source, looked at the 
params the applet was getting (same as you prob'ly could with this 
plugin ) and did a wget on the images - not because I wanted to use them 
but because I could. That sort of thing /really/ pisses me off.
