Anyone know any good ones that work with Firefox and can block ads made in flash - Firefox can block images but not flash...

I'm using flashblock at the moment to get rid of flash ads bloting out my CPU.

Use opera, it's much stabler and faster, and has features such as adblock built in.

I use opera but I have to disagree with the "stabler" and "faster" comments... I use Opera for normal browsing because of how it keeps your tabs open from session to session, and Firefox for videos/flash games/shockwave stuff/etc because all of that stuff makes Opera crash.

You should update Opera when it tells you to felix. That and you probs have an outdated version of flash player and java.

Eh, he may be correct, AF. I've had similar issues in the past.

This kills EVERYTHING. Ever since I installed it haven't seen a single ad. It's so good that I feel guilty about a couple of my favourite independent sites for losses in ad revenue. I've even disabled it on a couple of sites for that reason (unknown files, penny arcade etc...)
