I have recently changed browsers from Safari to Mozilla Firefox 3.1. Just recently I seem to have a problem with loading websites that have Microsoft Silverlight. Every time I go on a website that requires Microsoft Silverlight, my computer doesn't load and I get a "npctrl.dll" error. I cannot seem to find out how to fix the problem. Any help getting Microsoft Silverlight to function is very appreciated! Thanks Hello, I came across this blog post while looking for help with Microsoft Silverlight.

First, I am a .Net developer and absolutely love it. If I had a choice about it I'd never touch another platform. Also, Visual Studio IMO is the best IDE ever created... for developers. Having said that I do agree with many of the points that you presented, Serge. However, one truly great thing about Microsoft is that they listen to their consumers. I'm sure the SL experience will be made easier on designers who don't know how to use the Expression tools. I'm sure someone will create plugins or addins for the more popular design tools. I do think that Visual Studio has a long way to go to make it easy on developers to create SL apps.... Finally, there was a comment about Microsoft making its living by copying the ideas of someone else. That is done in every aspect of business. It's the nature of business and economy as it stands today. You see a flat screen tv created by company X. A few months / years later you see something similar from company Y. It's competition. That's why we have patents. That's what drives capitalism today. More often than not, Microsoft "copies" ideas because it's what their consumers are demanding. Anyhow, great article. Thought provoking (obviously). I'm excited to see what improvements are made to SL 3.0. Mike There are a few things I’d like to comment on.
