Probably. AFAICS that's NPAPI version of Flash which is scheduled to go away.

Interesting... I'm curious, does Chrome help itself to all available NPAPI plugins found on the local installation? When I navigate to chrome://plugins I see all the MPlayerPlug-In media player plugins I had compiled/installed for Firefox (but obviously, Chrome found them and chose to use them). Weird... (or maybe not)

did you compile those for firefox, or did you compile those for the NPAPI ? most likely the latter.
