Re: Firefox Extensions

I've been using Flashblock for a year or so.

So all those frikkin annoying Flash adverts don't even get a chance to start.

Instead of the flash starting you just get a play button centered where the flash app should be - if you then click on it the flash will start - otherwise it wont.

I use it a lot and its great.

You can get it here - http://flashblock.mozdev.org/
I do.

slightly OT: I'm having intermittent problems with Adblock ie it's not working sometimes but it is others. I've D/Led the latest build and uninstall/reinstall but it's not helped. any ideas?
Just make sure you are blocking the right content.
e.g. http://*.ads.adserver.com/* and not just http://img654.ads.adserver.com/banners/someimage.jpg
