noscript, adblock plus and flashblock together

Post by noculator »

First i'd like to thank the developteam for a Great effort, noscript is absolutely brilliant. that said, i've got a question.
I use flashblock for pages containing more than one flashscript from the same server. I dont want all to run at once, or just one at the given page.
The problem i have been seeing is that the flashboxes remain visible, but inactive, until i click them and then they dissapear.
this applies to commercial flashbanners as well, and this is one of the major benefits of running these addons in Firefox. no ads :) they take pixels and theyre annoing.
Hope i dont sound like a complete idiot. This combination of addons used to work great together before, but not anymore.

the latest versions (and dev builds) of noscript and adblock plus should be able to co-exist peacefully in Firefox [unlike what happened a year ago].

noculator, tell the creator of flashblock to update their addon (and fix more bugs) as it's currently incompatible with the Firefox 4.0b2pre nightlies
