Turning off sound in Firefox

oRlyYaRly · 2006-11-20 21:05:25

I play a lot of flash games with sound and I'm just wondering, is there anyway to turn the sound off in the browser so I can listen to music at the same time in WMP?

There should be an option in most games to turn the sound off. Are they those Flash ones? Apart from that, I'm not sure if there is a way unless you block the file types with Firefox adblock or something else which is a pain.

The problem is that Flash doesn't itself have an option to disable the volume on all movies by default (at least not that I have found anyway). However, while I haven't tried it myself yet, FlashMute claims to do just that, as well as with other browser plugins.
