Martin,
Having query stings in your static resources query strings slow down the page load speed. Many articles have been written about this. This is from Google developers.

Hi Martin,
The FV-flowplayer file is the only file (out of many dozen) which the query string is not removed by 3rd party plug-in. It is interesting and odd to find out why your product does not conform like the others. It is the only file left and which fails for query string removal in testing results with pingdom or GTMetrix. You can run these test and see results for http://fritzimages.com. Additionally, your file prevented rendering in webmaster tools of part of my site and I had to add file path to robots.txt to open up the rendering. I do not know why these fv-flowplayer files are different.
to answer your Q:
I am using other plugs which remove query strings. Speed Booster Pack which has option to remove query strings. It does a very good job. I have also deactivated Speed Booster Pack and activated Remove query stings from static resources plug in…it behaved the same way as Speed Booster pack, which was the FV-Flowplayer query string is not removed. Somehow it seems it is in a location or being protected from these plugins. I have spent many hours activating and deactivating and flushing out caches and retesting results with pingdom to try and isolate problem Nothing I did could remove your file strings (path noted in opening thread). Then following your instructions they could not remove your file string ( a new path was generated as noted in last posting http://fritzimages.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/fv-wordpress-flowplayer/css/flowplayer.css?ver=2.3.16). Why this query string is being generated which is different from the first is just plain interesting to me. Maybe you can tell me what is going on after I follow you instructions ? I’m not really that worried about this, it is the only nonconforming plugin query string I have. I thought I’d bring it to your attention and see if you can find out why your product is not behaving like everyone else’s on my site. There is probably a simple answer somewhere :). You make a great product and have great support and continue to update and keep your plugin active…
thanks,
