Auto-block Adobe Flash Invitations?
I don't have Adobe Flash Reader installed, and I don't want to install it. Lately, on more and more websites I visit I'm being invited to download this free Adobe Flash Reader software, sometimes 4 or more times. Each of those invitations takes over a minute to appear, and during that time nothing else is available at that URL. Is there a way to automatically block these Adobe Flash Reader invitations? I'm using Windows 2000/Pro, and OE/IE. Many thanks. -- ---------- CWLee Former slayer of dragons; practice now limited to sacred cows.

Auto-block Adobe Flash Invitations?
This question would probably get a better response in an Internet Explorer
newsgroup, as opposed to this Outlook Express newsgroup. For Internet Explorer questions not pertaining to Outlook Express, please post to one of the following: IE6 Specific Newsgroup: news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...er.ie6.browser IE General newsgroup: news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...plorer.general -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express ~IB-CA~ "CWLee" wrote in message ...

Thanks. I just did that at your suggestions. I wonder why this newsgroup has "inextexplorer" in its title, as well as outlookexpress? =================== "Bruce Hagen" wrote in message ...

Through IE6 / OE6, both programs are combined. That doesn't mean they had to
name the newsgroup in this way, but MS happens. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express ~IB-CA~ "CWLee" wrote in message ... Thanks. I just did that at your suggestions.
