Flashmute 2

Einar Otto Stangvik of “Indev”:http://www.indev.no/ has just released “Flashmute 2″:http://www.indev.no/?p=projects#flashmute — a fantastic little application that shuts up Flash movies.
Notable new features:
* Ability to turn hotkey mode off and on
* Mute any sound from any browser
I have updated the “Flashmute download”:http://virtuelvis.com/archives/2005/04/flashmute page — go get your copy.

    Why not just press F12 in Opera and untick plug-ins?

    bq. Why not just press F12 in Opera and untick plug-ins?
    Because there are occasions where you want Flash, but do not want noisy Flash ads. Believe me, this application is a godsend.

    Awesome, flash ads seem to get more annoying every day and sound is one of the key things esp. if you’re listening to PC music as well.

    Einar Otto Stangvik is an absolute star. I installed flashmute, and discovered that it didn’t work with mozilla. I emailed him to ask if it could be added to the next update, and he emailed me back within minutes with a registry patch to make it work! Top bloke.

    I can’t seem to get flashmute to work with firefox 1.5.1.0. It loads, just doesn’t silence the “sound spam. Is there a patch?
