I have been using konqueror-plugin-gnash successfully for several years.  As I 
mentioned in earlier posts, gnash plays youtube videos perfectly in Konqueror 
when the cookies are blocked.  It doesn't seem that the problem is with the 
Konqueror plugin, but instead with how gnash interacts with the cookies stored 
in Konqueror.

Regarding your "nspluginviewer closed unexpectly" error, that appears to be a 
separate issue.  I have never had that problem before.
