Yes, I see the Transgaming one is much larger, and includes a dll from Microsoft
that you can't redistribute (msvcp60.dll).

I think I did actually have the original author's plugin working correctly, but
what probably happened is I let it get out of sync w/ Fedora - I run rawhide and
I update that fairly often... silly of me to expect that to work.

I see the current versions are not compatible with either my Firefox or my
Mozilla browser. I am forced back to Transgaming's plugin (which also includes
Gecko dlls, so it should not get broken by browser upgrades).

Closing bug, since this does fix the problem. By the way, I see the Steam focus
bug hasn't be fixed yet - shame, since a patch for this does exist, and I even
had it documented on the HL2 appdb entry for a while - maybe I'll post about
this on wine-devel again...

Next: re-try HL2 and document all the hacks that requires on APPDB
- transgaming mozilla activex Control (or make sure it's compatible w/ browser)
- document unmerged patch for Steam focus bug
- document workaround for EULA acceptance bug (defined LicenceViewed=y on
cmdline) until undocument Control Event is added for ScrollableText msi control
