Hello Ah.

I use an extension called Mute Flash:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5453/

It's experimental, and for older browsers, but it works ok with 3.6 if you force compatibility. Since extensions are open source and the author seems to have died in a fiery car crash, you can even pick it up and make it compatible with Firefox 3.6+ if you have time and skill :)
