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.

Same here... but I'm afraid it is not possible.

there's this thing called an OFF button on your speakers

I mostly listen to music while browsing GFY.

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.

turn your speakers off

yeah me too - at least i USED TO I can't anymore ...our daughter sleeps in the next room if I have sound on the banners will wake her up

actually if anyone has any REAL way to do this PLEASE tell me
im so sick of those stupid fucking banners

:feels-hot

indeed

Don't put your mouse over it?

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

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.

thanks - I was just going to go look at that one
u saved me the trouble :glugglug
