OK, but that's completely different than what I'm doing or have 
experienced.  I guess... haven't been able to pin down exactly what 
causes the flash files to start.
*Maybe if I could save a log* of which sites were visited w/ timestamps 
& compare that w/ starting times of the flash files, I would know which 
site I was on.

At the moment, I'm not sure if I have anything that'll log even IP 
addresses w/ time stamps.

When I TRY to catch it - go to sites w/ Flash.  Only blank screens load 
saying, "Flash is not installed.  Please download it so we may sniff 
your system."
Then I've tried clicking or R clicking on the area where the player 
screen would be (but NOT on download Flash, nor on any play button - if 
one existed).
But I can't make the flash files start when I'm watching for them.

No, the 2 flash executables are definitely listed as descendants under 
the Tor Browser process.  Process Explorer GUI / its tree & icons shown 
are crystal clear on that.
In fact, a COUPLE of times when I was watching the 2 files, then at same 
time closed Tor Browser, the files immediately disappeared. Seemingly 
proof they were running as part of the Tor Browser (or Tor) process.

BTW, how do you pronounce your name?  Or maybe there's no translation 
into human speech?  Like Dolphins vocalizations can't be understood by 
humans? :D
