System requirements

To enjoy your net disasters, the ideal configuration consists of:
• a computer - the more powerful, the better! in order to guarantee the fluidity of motion;
• a decent browser featuring the Flash plug-in (v.4 minimum) and javascript, and supporting layers and Flash transparency;
• and of course an internet connection; a high-speed connection is not neccessary, since the animations, though heavy to handle for your CPU, have a light weight (not more than 40KB).

Please note that, to my knowledge, no Linux-based browser supports Flash transparency, which makes Netdisaster (even more!) useless to Linux users, unfortunately!

Netdisaster was tested successfully on the following configurations (and unsuccessfully on the ~~crossed-out onfigurations~~) :

Windows XP	Internet Explorer 7 \| Internet Explorer 6 \| Mozilla 1.7.3 \| Firefox 1.0.1 & 1.0.2 \| ~~Opera 7~~ \| ~~Opera 8.5~~
Windows 98	Internet Explorer 6 \| Mozilla 1.7.3 & 1.4 \| Firefox 1.0.2 \| ~~Opera 5 & 7~~
Windows ME	Firefox 1.0.2
Windows 2000	Internet Explorer 6 sp1 \| Opera 8 \| FireFox 1.0.2
Mac OS X	Safari \| Internet Explorer 5.2.3 \| Firefox
~~Linux~~

If you have tested Netdisaster (successfully or not) on another configuration, please let me know. Thanks to those who have sent me their test results!

Anyway, update your Flash Player with the lastest version available.

This page deals with the Netdisaster site only, and not with the DisasterBar, that is available only for Internet Explorer so far.
