It's even worse than that.  I am currently browsing on a borrowed laptop.  This has the usual "all included, all on" situation so, unusually, I can view Flash sites.  I had a look at Antidull and lasted about 30 seconds.  Highly annoyingly, it seems to override the volume you have set (OFF!) on your machine.  Saw your further comments and decided to give it both barrels.  Went back to the site and it doesn't want to let me in.  Maybe it has taken the hump because I didn't plough all the way through first time.
