How do I Get rid of Flash

Post by The Admiral3 »

In Firefox or Mozilla how do I turn off or delete the flash plugin?
I purposely run 2 versions of these browsers, 1 with flash, 1 without.
The obvious reason is to block out all the flash ads.
Somehow the flash plugin got installed on Mozilla 1.7.12 & I don't want
to uninstall-reinstall because my mail is also on it.
thanx.

a good idea is to install the extention "flashblock" i use it all the time, it replaces flash with a play button so you can choose to play it or not, (usefull if you hate ads but like youtube :) ). Anyway if your looking to block ads, i would recommend customizegoogle (removes google ads) and adblock plus (and install filterset.G). Just google those and it will change the way you look at the net forever.

Thanx for the suggestion, I do use flashblok with firefox. I would still like to know how to remove plugins. They are so easy to install, am I the only one who would like to get rid of a few?
thanx.

i'm using chinese version of windows xp.so i don't know the proper words of some tools.
opening "program management (adding or deleting programs)" ----> finding "macromedia flash player"
maybe it's useful.
