Hi all,

When using firefox I'm repeatedly confronted by a popup asking if I want
to install flash (usually to view some advertising).  This must happen
dozens of times a day.

Does anybody know if it is possible to stop that, and if so, how to do it?


If you mean the:
"Would you like to install the plugin needed to display the media on this page?"

notification, you can stop it from appearing again by setting plugins.notifyMissingFlash to false in about:config in Firefox.

This will stop it from appearing again but the icon in the Firefox urlbar will still appear, to disable that icon too set plugins.hideMissingPluginsNotification to true. Note that this pref affects flash, java and quicktime plugins notifications.
