An option to 'block flash from this server' would be loved! A way of achieving this result would be to modify the existing image blocking functionality into something more generic - ie allowing 'user defined' extensions so people could add *.swf (for example) to the list of 'image types' (these are presumably hard coded at present). This would turn 'image blocking' into a more generic 'extension-based content download controls'. Thanks for taking the time to read this (and for the browser!), Fraser Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
