Flashblock 1.5.18 is not Compatible with SeaMonkey 2.31 nor is the older
version for SeaMonkey. But it can be made compatible with a few simple
steps:
1. go to the Firefox Add-Ons page for Flashblock:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/flashblock/
2. Copy the link to download Flashblock from the button "Download Now"
or use the link I have provided below:
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/latest/433/addon-433-latest.xpi?src=dp-btn-primary
3. Go to the Addonconverter page:
http://addonconverter.fotokraina.com/convert.php
4. Paste the download link for Flashblock (see step 2 for the link url)
into the box below this phrase:
"or paste direct link to xpi file or full URL of add-on page at
https://addons.mozilla.org/:";
5. Click Convert at the bottom of the page and you will be prompted to
install Flashblock in SeaMonkey. You can safely ignore the warnings
about installing Flashblock. After SeaMonkey restarts you will once
again have Flashblock up and running in SeaMonkey.
I hope this helps. :)
Why bother? FlashBlock 1.3.20 for SeaMonkey was released at the same
time as Flashblock 1.5.17 was released for Firefox. They are both
available at <http://flashblock.mozdev.org/>.
On the other hand, FlashBlock 4.20.13 for Firefox is available at
<https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/flash-block/>. I
converted this for SeaMonkey compatibility at
<http://addonconverter.fotokraina.com/>, but I have not yet tried
installing and using it.
Does that one block HTML5 as well? That is why I got Flashblock 1.5.17.
It can block HTML5, which 1.3.20 does not do.
