What is "SVG Viewer 3.02 for Netscape"?

[vic20]

Every page on this site causes my browser (IE 7) to go "plink!" (sound effect) and present me with a warning "This website wants to run the following add-on: 'SVG Viewer 3.02 for Netscape' from 'Adobe Systems Inc.'..."

Why does a Netscape viewer want to run for my IE browser? I don't want to let it run, but EVERY page goes "plink" and alerts me to this.

Adobe's SVG Viewer is a plugin that allows you to view content that uses Scalable Vector Graphics.

I have no idea why IE would be asking for a Netscape version of the veiwer, though.

I also get this exact same thing. Since i use firefox 99% of the time, it really doesn't bother me, but when I use IE 7 on the odd occasion it can be quite irritating.

From the tech documents I've read online this appears to be a bug - but what part of the ENWorld pages is triggering the bug I've yet to trace.

It tells me that it wants to run "Quicktime" from "Apple Computer, Inc." This makes no sense, because the Quicktime plugin is already installed. Again, I don't see this when I browse with Firefox, only I.E.

Grrr...

I finally gave up and just let it SVG Viewer, and then it started prompting me to run the Quicktime Player, and then it started prompting me to allow a "Media Shim(?)".

This totally flies in the face of how I like to use my browser, in that a website has dictated by constant annoyance the plugins that I run. Bad web site. Bad.
