So why not just cut them off at the pass? Your solution is complete overkill. I will not install a proxy server on my laptop to get rid of one stupid flash banner ad. Besides I am not really asking for a solution to the problem. I am trying to find out if there is a bug in konqueror regarding plugin rules for individual domains. If there is I will post a bug report to KDE's bug tracking site. Anders -- This email was written using KMail 1.7 (KDE3.3) on Debian GNU/Linux

Maybe kmailcvt can do this directly, another possibility would be to export to a standard format (vCard) in Outlook first. Cheers, Kevin

Can't exclude flash plugin from working on slashdot.org
I have been trying to stop slashdot.org from running flash adverts because they use a lot of cpu and causes the fan to start up on my laptop. The code on the page that includes the flash adverts look like this: So I tried going into the plugin settings where I have plugins enabled globally, and add a domain specific rule to deny flash for the domain ads.osdn.com. That didn't make any difference, so I also tried adding slashdot.org. That didn't work either. Do you think there is a bug here? I am using kde 3.3 from unstable.
