I agree with Matt. I have been using Clicktoflash for a long while now and it works great. But it does not stop all image based advertising because a lot of advertisers now place their advertisements within the web page and don't use Flash. I don't know how this is done. I bet there is an army of geeks working on how to defeat Clicktoflash on behalf of the advertising industry or even within Adobe.
But for now +1 for Clicktoflash. I think there is at least one other similar app. On 24/02/2010, at 3:36 AM, Dark1 wrote: > > Wow. Thanks for this Matt.
