Someone uses shockware not just flash?

Other than running inside wine, there appears to be no choice.  So that
means reaktivate for kde to run the activex plugin in konqueror, or you
can get codewaver's crossover to run it inside most of the browsers on
linux.

Reaktivate is free, but probably much harder to get going.
