To configure Flashblock (and all your extensions), first go to the Tools menu and select the Add-ons option.
Next, select the extension you want to configure. Here we are about to edit the Flashblock settings.
Flashblock is a pretty simple extension to configure. You can turn it on or off from the On/Off tab, as well as having it block Microsoft Silverlight content as well.
The Whitelist tab allows you to create a list of websites that Flashblock will ignore. This is nice for YouTube and Hulu, websites where you are going there specifically for the Flash content!
Now, when you go to a website that includes Flash content – we removed Vimeo from our whitelist for this example – you’ll see this:
You can tell there is something missing because of the Flash logo in the middle of the large black space. To turn on Flash for that part of the page, simply click the logo and the content will load. Simple!
From now on, thanks to Flashblock, Flash content is under your control. Nothing will load unless you tell it to.
