Multiple Monitors and Flash Videos

Hey there guys, I put this on Runewire and it seemed pretty convenient for a few people, so I thought I would post it on here to help you guys even more!

Sorry if this all seems garbled, I'm in a rush.

Click that article to download and view instructions.
Basically, have you ever watched a YouTube video in fullscreen and wanted to work on your other monitor, only when clicking it, you find out that your fullscreen is disrupted?

Annoying, isn't it? So now, with this file download, you basically replace a file in the Flash system folder and the only way your fullscreen videos are interrupted is if you click the player's button or press Esc.

Only issue it has is that programs that recognize your status in fullscreen stops doing so.
(e.g. MSN marks you as busy when you are in fullscreen. no longer the case with this download)

Enjoy!

seems like a good writeup, i think some people will be weary of downloading that file tho.

Wow this is excellent! Just downloaded it, and after a bit of UAC and cmd wizardry (because Windows wouldn't let me copy a file into the Windows dir), it's now working perfectly.
