Details

I visit a certain website and on nearly every second page it wants a:
  "This page contains informations of a type (application/x-shockwave-flash)   
  that can only be viewed with the appropriate Plug-in."

I always have to click cancel-cancel-cancel.... while browsing.

I do not want to install the shockwave plugin. Period.
I don't care about the content I'm missing, being ads or whatever.

Feature request:
Not only ask "OK" and "Cancel" but also "No, and never ask me about this plugin
type again" with the last option then showing an "ignore" in Preferences->Helper
Applications with this type.
If I want to accept a certain plugin in the future I can somehow clear the
"ignore" in preferences.

Would be nice if this makes it into Moz 1.0, at least it would make daily
browsing on "multimedia enriched web experiences" acceptable.
according to bug 61103 comment #3, this already works on Windows.
Resolving as dup.
