Angry Flash 5 'advert'

The computer I'm using at present does not have Flash 5 loaded and whilst trying to view the pprune forums I keep getting this annoying invitation to download Macromedia Flash 5. Is there some way of cancelling this? it only appears when using pprune.

Thanks.

This was raised by someone else a little while back.

The easiest thing is to just download the new version and you get no more irritating pop ups.

Flash is becoming the replacement for animatied GIF files - loads more functionality and so much easier to create. Shock is now shipping as out of the box standard with XP.

Nice little bit of freeware if you want to stop those incredibly irritating pop-ups

Scroll down and look for prog called 'No Pops'

I would suggest installing Flash Player, only takes a moment and it is so widely used on sites these days.

Can be downloaded here
