    Requested Plugin zip files

    This is about the four 'inside plugin'-sets for Irfan View.
    I gathered some text about this in the file here
    Effects - Formats - Misc - Mmedia.
    Considering the filesize, there's not quite a balance in this. Formats is by far the biggest.
    Maybe some improvement can be made here.

    E.g. some details to begin with :
    1) Why not moving the Flash.dll from Formats to Mmedia ?
    2) Some plugins are self-sufficient, others need third-party extra's to perform.
    The ability to select, or having a specific zip-group for those, would help to integrate them as well or not.
    3) To use older 8bf-files it's recommended to extra download a file with 'MSVCRT10.DLL' and 'PLUGIN.DLL'.
    The advice to place them in the system map is wrong. Because it can cause version conflicts, and it's not
    necessary. The two files can just be copied to the root dir of IV, and all works fine.
    So these two dll's could as well be integrated in the Effects zip download.
    4) Mmedia. Why placing Fmod.dll as only file in its own subdir Fmod, instead of the regular plugins dir ?
    5) Formats. Why making a subdir CRW only for a 'readme.txt'. If renamed to crw.txt it could be added
    straight with the crw.dll in the regular plugins dir.
