See Wikipedia for more browser details.Disabling the Adobe Flash plugin can be useful if you want to increase stability of your browser, decrease resources and energy usage, and/or increase security. † Like for Firefox one needs the original add-on, but Opera and Chrome have built-in support. This will still fail if some JavaScript writes out the domain names in a way that is not easily recognized by simple text replacement. On the "transform" pane, set "Only for content-type" to "any text type", and add: // Rewrite "" to "", and so on: Still, for those who insist to do it in GlimmerBlocker: one could rewrite specific domains to some dummy. Browser add-ons do a much better job there, and are probably also updated when domains change. Like to stop HTTP websites from telling Google and Facebook what you're viewing, blocking really needs you to change the HTML of the page that you're viewing. That aside, blocking on IP address is easier done in a hosts file.Įven when viewing a plain HTTP page, then references to HTTPS resources cannot be blocked either. Even more, GlimmerBlocker cannot block on IP address either: the value for "Host" is really the value of the Host header, which it cannot see in HTTPS traffic. The proxy cannot peek into the content, let alone change it. This cannot be used to filter secure HTTPS pages. So, enabling Flash in one browser does not enable it in another.Īnd of course, as a bonus one gets GlimmerBlocker's ad blocking, for plain HTTP sites.įlashBlock uses HTML local storage, and hence might leave a trail on your local harddisk for each site you visit, regardless if it uses Flash and even in private browsing modes. Unfortunately, whether or not a site is whitelisted is remembered using either DOM Storage or cookies, and both are browser-specific. Right-click (or Ctrl-click) that icon for more options, including copying the Flash URL. To temporarily enable some specific Flash, click the Flash icon that is shown for blocked content. I have not used Alexey Ruzanov's real add-on, but in his Greasemonkey script pressing Option-F toggles whitelisting of the current website. ![]()
