You can also use clive to convert .flv to friendlier formats. I have never had a luck with those adds on for Firefox. Even their ftp client sucks. That is way I use Opera and Lynx. Do not get me wrong. I am recommending Opera's ftp or bittorrent client for the serious users but it is good to know that you have them and that they work. Opera also has a very solid mail client and slue of other features to be desired by Firefox. My experience with Firefox adds on is miserable.
