164855 - Netscape feature missing

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 19118

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[John Peterson]

1.  When I go to a site that has animated gifs in Netscape, I am able to click
the stop button to stop the pesky animations.  However, in Mozilla, the stop
button is disabled, so the only way to stop them is to run through the
preferences window.  This takes too much time.  I want the animation left on
because I go to a weather site that animates a weather map.

2.  It would be nice to be able to quickly turn on and off the option to load or
not load all images.  The request box does slow things down.  An option that
scans addresses for key matches in order to automatically reject them, would be
nice.  Example:  m.doubleclick.net - scan for 'doubleclick' and reject all
incoming containing that work.

3.  It would also be nice to stop macromedia images from coming in (I can find
no way to eliminate them).  They also always come in with 'play' on.  I had to
write a quickie to cover up these pest when, as they are flashing like crazy on
a page.  They are extremely distracting.

   Thanks.

> item 3 is bug 19118

I was going to say bug 94035

item 1 & 2 are also dupes, I even tracked them down but when I tried to submit
my comment I got a mid-air collision with Boris above and when I clicked Back
Mozilla wiped the textfiled for me.

Verified dupe.
