The site gives me only the message "You need to upgrade your Flash Player". This is not unique to this particular site; many sites give the same reaction, although most have no such problem.
I'm at work and using an XP system with Firefox 3.0.3 and flash 9.0r124 and it works as well.
Honestly, most flash based sites like this one I find very irritating and I usually email the admins complaining about their excessive use of flash. I'd offer to give you the link, but I also can't read Hebrew.....
good luck.
Many thanks for all those who responded. Yes, I do have NoScript installed, but never thought of it in terms of Flash. I'll have to try permitting the site. Interesting, however, that the problem appears on some sites but not on others, so the designers are clearly doing different things, as one of the responses has observed. That means, of course, that there isn't a way to allow the problematic sites globally, which is a pain. And I already know that complaining to webmasters doesn't help much.
