Flashblock for opera

by on May.23, 2010, under Software

Another note in case I forget.
Since allowing flash by default slows browsing (and my PC) to a crawl, this nifty little script converts all flash content on a page to a flash icon.
Download it, stash it in your opera UserJS dir. (See Preferences -> Advanced -> Content -> Javascript Options -> User JavaScript Folder).

Youtube before:

youtube before flashblock script

Youtube Before Flashblock.js


Youtube after:
Youtube After Flashblock.js

Youtube After Flashblock.js

Simply click on it if you are sure you want to load it, and it’ll look like “Youtube Before” again 😉
Did I mention this kill most flash ads? 🙂

P.S. The userjs dir can also be used to put GreaseMonkey scripts in. You might have to rename them because the script must end with .user.js for this to work.
