Could anyone recommend a plug-in/extension for Firefox that blocks Flash ads? I really hate those things, they kill my bandwidth. >_>

I so know this one. Let me run my souped-up version of FFox when I'm done with mu current session in my barebones FF, and I'll check.

I usually use adblock and the adblock filterset updater
www.getfirefox.com, click addons and search for em.
Flashblock also works, but I adblock filters most already.
Awesome extension list:
IETab
ForecastFox
Adblock
Adblock Filterset G updater

Reason I have two? One's the souped-up every-extension-I-ever-want version, which runs like molasses on this system.. and the "condensed" version has only necesities like IE Tab, Tab Mix Plus, Super Drag and Go, Fasterfox, and Chatzilla. The main installation has wayyyyy too many to list. xD

I'll check out Flashblocker, thanks sectrict. I've already got Adblock, which is nice in how it can block full ad bars and specific images (in case a site hosts the ads on the same server as everthing else), but that can't block flash ads, which is the biggest annoyance when browsering.
I see, Riinuka. XD I'll look up some of those out of curiosity. :P As soon as I'm done torrenting (torrenting on dial up is an extreme test of patience >_>) I'll look them up.
