Wish there was a Google Chrome add-on available that would
automatically toggle the autoplay feature of all Flash and Html 5 web
players to off. If you go to a page that you do want to have the web
player autoplay function enabled, press a shortcut key combination
and it would be enabled for
browsers, but I
would imagine that other browsers must have the same type of options.
Good luck.

It seems to be browser dependent. As I said, control-m will stop
playback in Firefox. I'm looking for ways to stop or block playback in
both IE and Chrome.
In IE, there are options to not download images and sounds, but will any
of these options block this embedded media? If so, which option?
I agree! CNet stinks now for it auto plays some sort of info video
whennever you access resources there. It doesn't seem to be a Flash
player. Some new fancy HTML 5 player that JAWS isn't able to
recognize any controls to stop it.

I'm still trying to find the best way to deal with sites like CNET which
automatically launch audio/video on their pages.
First of all, can anyone tell me what is being used to play these
things? I don't think it's Flash. Is it javascript or something else?
Someone enlightened me to the fact
