At the top of the web page at http://64.33.76.120/homepage.html
is a window that apparently is generated by the following code:

<embed src="nastygirl_destinyschild.mid"
hidden="true" loop="true" autostart="true">

This object is active in Konqueror even though both javascript and java
are disabled and activeX doesn't work on this computer.

How is this possible?

1. It don't require activex
2. It don't require java
3. It don't require javascript

the embed tag is used to cal a plugin, in this case an audio plugin that can
play midi files, to disable this you need to disable the plugin.
