Bug Description

Using daily build (6 apr 2012) on a new pc, no previous installation. Copying files had probably completed. Syslog indicates a problem with flash plugin installer. Perhaps noteworthy that I had earlier clicked on the scrolling twitter-feed in the welcome slides and as a result brought up Firefox.

Reproduced without doing anything with the welcome slideshow, and without using Firefox. Same symptoms, syslog again indicates a problem with flash plugin installer, so my "noteworthy" comment in the description should be ignored.
