Disabling Flash in the Browser?
fishdan asks: "I know there are a few tools for selectively disabling flash in IE, but there is currently nothing in Mozilla. I'm wondering how many people have just removed Flash (as I have) by deleting the appropriate files? I find it greatly enhances my web experience, and on the very few cases when i think there is something worth seeing in Flash, I'll check it out on someone else's computer. I know someone is working on a 'disable flash from this site' for Moz X.x.x, but I'm wondering what people are doing now? I'm also actively advising people I know to remove Flash because of the lack of control for it on the users end. Short of deleting Flash, there's nothing uses can do to to stop those irritating ads. I don't mind the moderate ones, but the excessive ads are enough for me to throw the baby out with the bath-water."
why do you guys hate flash?
they're working on making the back button work, and all the other things you guys whine about.
Flash isn't that big of an annoyance for me. For me, annoyances are things like getting my car stolen, or getting into a fight.
You guys that think Flash is annoying need to step back and have a look at things.
