+Plugin supports playback of WAV, SWF, MP3, OGG and SVG media files. Currently
+OGG and SVG files are played only by browsers that implement w3.org nested 
+objects correctly and browsers that can play <embed> objects. Internet Explorer 
+can't play them due to broken <object> implementation. OGG and SVG <object>
