Feel free to use the followin audio engine.
But please give credit where it's due.
In other words, leave this disclaimer here.

Usage:
newAudio(filename, trackname[, duration, delay])

Verson 1.3 :: AUGUST 28 2007
Better Windows FF support. Now uses WMV, not QT.

Verson 1.2 :: MARCH 1 2007
Much better performance, less lag.
IE gets bgsound. Others get embed.
A special case for IE? Nah, really?
No Sounds in FF if no QT (ff requires qt).

Verson 1.1 :: FEBRUARY 23 2007
No longer excluding any browser.
Using embed+noembed+object.

Verson 1 :: JANUARY 12 2007
