Trouble with Flash site

[greymatters]

I'm having a little trouble using a site called Listkiller. It's a site that offers numerous timed quizzes via a flash interface (you have to log in for most, but for testing purposes, you can use the 3 free games on the home page).

I'm using Safari 3.1.1, with Flash 9.0.124.0 and Shockwave 11.0.0.0 installed, all used on (and downloaded for) an Intel-based iMac. On Safari, and Firefox 2.0.0.14, the games never stops loading the initial data.

I tried playing it on the latest version of Opera, and the game loads, and even begins, but won't let me enter text (which, as you might imagine, makes answering an online trivia quiz very difficult).

I downloaded Camino, and it works perfectly everytime!

Any ideas on how I can get this site to work on Safari, which is my main browser? I'd appreciate any help you can give me.

I recently had some significant difficulties viewing Flash videos using Firefox. After some experimentation I discovered that an add-on (Google WEb Accelerator, actually) was causing the proble, Since disabling it, I have had no problems. Check your add-ons.

Just a possibility.

Good thought, but it didn't help with the Flash problem.

I've been looking for an excuse to remove my add-ons anyway (I don't use them any more), so it did achieve something.

I found the problem! You have to enter the site via http://www.listkiller.com/. If you don't use that www., the quizzes won't stop loading.

It's interesting that this isn't a problem in Camino.

Now, if I could just figure out why listkiller has a finance category, despite a complete lack of quizzes for it.
