How do I get Firefox to stop asking inane questions about loading Flash, etc. I hate, loath and do not ever want video, so is there a script or add-on that removes (for ever) this useless process from Firefox. If not is there a Linux browser that you can recommend that does not ask dumb question about loading Adobe junk, or wants to install some resource hog to run the hated video.


Thank-you VideaHater.

You can change on about:addons on Flash to Never ask.

You can toggle the plugins.notifyMissingFlash to false on the about:config page.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
