Try another version of the flashplugin, it may or may not work. As flash isn't
supported well in all operating systems and even official plugins from
adobe/macromedia, the transparency do not work.

I would suggest you use one of the many CSS based menus, those works a lot
better in most browsers and less depending on operating system as FF/SeaMonkey
are portable.
