Or you just go to Tools > Addons > Plugins and chose to have Firefox ask you before it activates the Flash plugin for a page – same functionality I think?
Yeah, this would be more or less the same functionality (FlashBlock makes it per item, so you can, for example see a video but not activate the other elements)
I think the Firefox plugin option does this too (at least, it works that way in Chrome). You can activate a plugin (and only that plugin) by clicking on it.
