Now you need Flashblocker & User Agent Tool (or whatever it's called) and
you're done.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

what's that do then?

Flashblocker puts up a little "Play" logo instead of flash, so you can
choose to watch the tiresome pointless animations if you so desire &
User Agent Thingy allows you to tell Firefox to pretend to be IE, or
indeed anything you like, to get past website's "Your browser isn't
crappy enough" stuff.

Hah, there's no limit to the ingenuity of site designers to find ways
of turning people away.
