The huge animated banner done in flash is on the main page:
http://store.fictionwise.com/astak/home.htm
Background is horizontal blue-white gradient, with big yellow "Buy now" button, with EZ Reader letters and various pictures of the Reader.
See attached picture.
The name of the flash animation is http://store.fictionwise.com/astak/g.../frontpage.swf

FlashBlock is for people *just* like you.
You need to have flash enabled for sites that you work on, and you want to have it disabled for sites where evil web designers use flash to display huge animated banners that prevent you from reading the site itself.
With FlashBlock each flash animation is represented by a "play" icon. The flash animation is only downloaded and started when you click on the icon inside an area where the flash animation is supposed to be. Simple, easy, elegant.
