  Change the version number Gnash uses to tell Firefox it's the flash 
plugin. In your $HOME/.gnashrc file you can set this to match Adobe:

set flashVersionString LNX 10,0,12,36

 This is also setable via the Edit->Preferences menu. My gut feeling is 
this will now force people to constantely update their version string 
for Gnash, which will become a constant hassle. It's pretty obvious that 
the Mozilla Foundation doesn't really care about anyone but their 
corporate funding partners. The funny part is they did this because of 
all the security problems with Adobe's plugin.
