Flash block {web link} Never be annoyed by a Flash animation again! Blocks Flash so it won't get in your way, but if you want to see it, just click on it
You can set this pref to false on the about:config page to prevent Firefox from playing media files via the HTML5 media player.
- media.play-stand-alone = false
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
