 |

I was wondering if there are any extensions or tools for Mozilla Firefox, to disable the showing of advertisement banners that have moving graphics. (Such as "Free IPod - Stamp on the spider to win!), because I believe it is making the videos I want to watch streamed buffer more frequently than before.
Anyone know a tool for this?
Thanks in advance.[/b] _________________ Haha SpecShip |

Perhaps in one of the extensions mine go boom uses?

I have IE set to disable those.
ZoneAlarm (or nVidia was it?) also has an option to disable these. _________________ It matters if you just keep trying. |

| The banners you're talking about are typically in flash. There's an extention that allows you to replace the flash image with a View button, not sure what it's called though. |

Flashblock. It's a thing of beauty.
Better get the View in IE extention too though, for stupid sites that actually use flash for their main site's conent in such a way that that you never see the play icon (some movie's sites). _________________ Hyperspace Owner

Yup, they must be in flash then.
