Somebody please tell me there is a way to turn off or disable (without removing) Flash Player in firefox or IE? I am getting pissed off at these advertisements that yell at me and follow me to the bottom of the page!!
mad
mad:thumbdown:fing27
I tell firefox to not auto-download pictures, but it still downloads flash ads anyway!! what the FUCK!
Assuming Windows-version of FireFox:
Having FireFox open, click:
Tools (menu bar)
Add-ons (menu item)
Plugins (tab -- right hand side)
Shockwave Flash (list item)
Disable (button, inside Shockwave Flash list item)
You can also manage other add-ons from this window, including extensions and themes.
As for Internet Explorer (I have Vista x64, but most items transition to XP):
Stat (button)
Control Panel (menu item)
Internet Options (icon, double-click to open)
Programs (tab)
Manage Add-ons (button)
Find a similar item to 'Shockwave Flash' (list item; I do not have one in the list on my computer, as I do not use Internet Explorer)
Disable (option, lower left hand of the dialog box)
-----
Both FireFox and Internet Explorer:
Click all the OK boxes to finish. You may have to close and restart the browser application for the settings to be enforced.
Hope this helps you out; those advertisements are bitches. :rant:
