Thanks, Thrawn.

I'm not even a novice, like way below novice.

So from my understanding, this is a flaw in the browser that is not fixable/blockable in the core itself, not even able to be implemented to be locked down?

I'm just trying to wrap my head around this.

This is blowing my mind...

Hi, barbaz.

May I ask how you got to the source of prettyloader? Another words, how did you find it?

I've been using JavaScript Deobfuscator for a couple days now, ran across another site using a loading element floater inside a flash player video, it shows a loading icon on video buffering, instantly blocking view of video picture.

How would I get to the source of that?

I'm not completely sure now, but the tools I used were Firebug, the Web Console, and a modified version of the (now dead) JSView addon. I would have started by inspecting the element where click triggered the cursor change, but I think I ended up just looking through all loaded stylesheets for unusual values of the "cursor" property.
You can get a mostly-working JSView here, but it's buggy and requires several fixes to work properly on modern Gecko.

It might be internal to the Flash object so I don't know if you can...
Javascript Deobfuscator turns out not to be generally the best tool for these things. Try inspecting the element with Firebug (unless Palemoon has Firefox's built-in devtools, then use that). If you can inspect it then you can zap it with Adblock Plus.
