migraine friendlier internet

A lovely plugin/add on was recently brought to my attention. It's called "flashblock", and when it's installed for Firefox (which is the browser I use), it blocks those super annoying flash ads - you know, the ones that feature often flickering, dancing, flashing, and otherwise strobe-like visual patterns in the margins of your screen. These are very annoying for most people, and for a few of us unlucky folks, these ads can be a migraine trigger. I use the Firefox browser one, but there is a version for Internet Explorer available too. Here's a blurb from the IE flashblock site:
Flashblock is an extension for Internet Explorer that takes a pessimistic approach to dealing with Macromedia Flash / Shockwave content on a webpage and blocks ALL Flash content from loading. It then leaves placeholders on the webpage that allow you to click to view the Flash content.
