Well I just heard some devastating news today. It seems that Macromedia has teamed up with Yahoo and the Flash Player download now comes with the Yahoo toolbar as the default option!

I can’t believe Macromedia has decided to go down this route. Check it out for yourself:

EDIT: It seems that Firefox users are not presented this option, another reason to switch. Here’s the link to the flash player download player [http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1\_Prod\_Version=ShockwaveFlash](http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash)

What do you have say about this?
