Disable Adobe Flash / Use a Flash Block Plugin Many sites use Flash for video and games, so instead of uninstalling Flash completely use a Flash block plugin for your web browser. This causes all Flash to be disabled by default until you click to allow individual plugins and instances of the Flash plugin to run, preventing unauthorized Flash from running in a web browser completely. These plugins are free and available for every major browser: ClickToFlash for Safari FlashBlock for Chrome FlashBlock for Firefox > > So I’m a bit confused where on the one hand you say: > You should not require Adobe plug-in to view a YouTube video. > I don't have Adobe plug-in installed and I can view the Glen Campbell video > perfectly.
