    Is there any way to prevent flash banners from making sound?

    This "Oh my god I'm coming" banner drives me crazy and annoys me like hell.

          but people be honest

          I don't believe there's ANYONE on this board who likes the banner, and I think even Jenn gets a flush of shame through her when she accidentaly hovers over the banner.

                    I'm using a linksys router/firewall and I have all of the annoying flash banners blocked at the firewall.
                    I like pie.

                      isnt there a setting in firefox where you have to press flash a button on flash movies for them to load?

                        I dunno about firefox I never sued it but I think there are a few alternative browsers which allow you to turn of flash completely

                        xcept form what ive read of the one's i've sene - the browser is pretty shitty/unstable

                          Firefox definitely sucks.
