Re: Firefox 12 Resource Hog

Flashblock is not needed at all and redundant with no script. No script can block flash as well and do a much better job then flashblock.

Incorrect. I use 3.6 and noscript does not, by default, block flash from automatically loading and running. You still need flashblock to do that.

Flashblock gives the ability to whitelist a domain in NS, which should then allow Flash therein, but then selectively allow only each individual desired flash objects within that domain, if that is what one desires. For sites one wants all Flash to load, one would then whitelist it in Flashblock as well. Run together, one has more specific control.

I never mentioned default or automatic. Point being it does block flash if you want it to.
