Details

It would be nice to be able to block sound playing from browser content. I suspect this may be too difficult since there are several sources of sounds (Java, Flash, etc.). Still, I would like to see the idea considered. There a times when I really don't want sounds to suddenly start playing and they're starting to appear in banner ads. Perhaps one could add a pref and maybe users could actually convince plugin vendors to check for and respect that pref? Perhaps it could be added to OJI as well? Maybe the Sun plugin folks would go for it? I'm living in a dreamworld, right?
