Internet Explorer has (or used to have anyway) an option to not automatically play multimedia content in web pages. I can't figure out how do this in Firefox to keep every third web site from sodomizing the music I'm listening to. This option is desperately needed.

This add-on has been removed by its author. Does anyone know of another one that does basically the same thing? I have searched add-ons & googled, but just keep getting referenced to this no-longer-available software. Help!
