<p>I read that from Natty beta 2 overlay scrollbars are default, but my installation is a fully updated one that I installed from an alpha release.</p> <p>I think the settings did not kick in from the update so I want to know how to enable it (there are plenty posts on how it disable it though)?</p>

<p>I want to record the audio from flash videos on YouTube or Hulu to listen to later on my iPod or SanDisk mp3 player. </p> <p>Is there any combination of tools that can accomplish this? Is it possible to record the audio in the background without having to listen to it while it's recording? </p>
