---- Flash Will Be Disabled On All Websites Not On A Whitelist In IE10

Erm...that's not great.

Unless I misunderstood it, this is only applicable to IE10 in Metro* though. If Flash content is found by IE10 Metro that is not on the whitelist, then the user is prompted to open that page in IE10 desktop, where it'll run fine.

Still, it's pretty bad. Would like to know how this transfer from IE10 Metro to IE10 desktop would handle session - if you're looking at content that's behind a login, would this force the user to log in again?

I wonder if this will mean some developers will end up discouraging users from using IE10 Metro.

*Metro, or whatever
