     I tried the site and found that if I were to use the rendering engine of   
   IE in NS8 I do get the MIDI sound.   
      
      If it crashes on you when you do this then there is a conflict with the   
   flash plugin in NS8.  It has to do with the NPSWF32.DLL which is what NS8   
   uses to redender in with FireFox.  They sometimes don't like to play nice,   
   at least in my experience w/NS8.  So what I did was to go into the Netscape   
   folder and then into the plugin folder which is where you will find this   
   .dll and deleted it from the folder.   
      
      This is a simple work around and has made my experience w/NS8 much more   
   pleasurble.  If you go to a site that uses flash and you trust this site   
   then use the IE rendering engine, but don't do this unless you do.  If not   
   just ignore NS8 when it asks you to download the flash plugin.   
      
     Hope this helps...
