## Description

**Flash Block (Plus)** is a Chrome extension designed to give you full control over Adobe Flash content across the web. Whether it's ads, games, videos, or music players using Flash, this extension replaces them with a placeholder labeled 'Flash Content'. You can click the placeholder to load the original Flash content when desired.

Key features include the ability to toggle Flash blocking on or off directly from the toolbar, and manage a whitelist of websites where Flash content is allowed seamlessly. This ensures you have a smoother browsing experience while deciding when and where Flash content should run, enhancing security and reducing unwanted distractions.

For bug reports or additional details, users can visit the add-on's official homepage for support and updates.
