     KNOWN PROBLEMS WITH WORKAROUNDS:
  
       - Function varies when running in anything other than 
         256 colors.
         Workaround: Run in 256 color mode or 8 bit screen depth.
       - General redraw/refresh problems.
         Workaround: Select Reload from the buttonbar or View menu.
       - A broken icon appears and the movie is not loaded.
         Workaround: Select Reload from the buttonbar or View menu
         and ensure the web server MIME-type is set to 
         "application/x-director".  For further information, see:
         http://www.macromedia.com/Tools/Shockwave/sdc/Dev/getstart.html#server
       - If the Disk Cache is set to 0 Kb, movies will not play.
         Workaround: Increase Netscape's Disk Cache to 5000 Kb.


     KNOWN PROBLEMS WITHOUT WORKAROUNDS:
  
       - NetLingo commands.  PreloadNetThing may not work in 
         conjunction with gotoNetMovie and gotoNetPage.  For best 
         results, set the Cache Preference to "Verify Documents 
         Once Per Session".  To set the Cache Preference, select 
         Network Preferences from the Options menu.
       - Tables.  Movies embedded in tables may crash.
       - Windows NT.  The 16-bit Plug-In may work with 16-bit 
         Netscape under Windows NT, however, it has not 
         been certified nor will it be supported at this time.
         The 32-bit Plug-In will not work with Windows NT.
