Ipix plugin

[Anne Keller-Smith]

Hi all,

Parents are trying to view damonrv.com and do the virtual
tours of motor homes. (They are in the market for a new
RV.)

They called me because they can't seem to view them.

So, I got to the site, look at the Flash detect script,
see it ferrets out older versions, click on one of the
virtual tours, and it says I need a plugin. Okay,
I have Flash 6, so I'm thinking I'll go to Macromedia's
page and d/l Flash 7. (Thinking, what stupid web
designers, why don't they build some backwards
compatibility?)

But no, I end up at ipix.com, and they want me to
download their plugin.

Just a question - is Ipix okay to download? I'm
confused, I thought for 360 virtual tours it would
be Quicktime VR. I have not heard of Ipix.

I searched on Version Tracker but they didn't seem
to be able to find Ipix.

One hates to d/l plugins of dubious variety, regardless
of promised delights, due to what may happen to
the computer subsequently. Or is OSX better in this
regard?

Father is using OS 10.1.2 on a G4 iMac.
