I'm using a pretty old PC here (single core, 2 ghz) and when opening multiple tabs in Firefox, the darn flash advertisements would slow it down to a crawl. After some searching, found this:

Type: about:config in the URL bar
Search for this: plugins.click_to_play and set it to 1

Then you can click only on the flashes that you want to play (and you'll also minimize the risk on running into exploits). FF is fast again .

Thanks, that's a great idea! I'm on a pretty old laptop as well...

Yw. Dunno what's going on with Flash these days, it has become very CPU intensive (as well as buggy).
