Many ads are in Flash. It's lovely not to see ads, that's a bonus for me. I've never seen a Flash opening I didn't want to click through. I don't happen to favour flash galleries either. Basically, I'm avoiding installing anything I don't need, that's all. I do notice most savy Flash sites have a choice though of a non Flash with one click. That's the real answer here.
