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

Yeah I know that.
It's showing up in the extensions screen, the options work, but the Adblock thing doesn't always show in the bottom right of the window, and likewise, the context menu options don't appear. grr
