How does one deactivate the flash plugin in internet explorer 6
(without uninstalling flash altogether)

I need this because some flash movies use all my CPU power (166
MHz...)

download
SpywareBlaster
which will first block a certain number of spywares pages but also
there you can check an option so that flash doesn't work.

Found this in a previous post. It may be a way.

I made two shortcuts in my Links area under Internet Explorer, which
each run a command:

Flash On:

"C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\regsvr32.exe"
"C:\WinNT\System32\Macromed\Flash\swflash.ocx"

Flash Off:

"C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\regsvr32.exe"
"C:\WinNT\System32\Macromed\Flash\swflash.ocx" /u

(these are word wrapped for usenet, you must combine the two lines
back together, separated by a space)

Of course, if you're not running an NT-kernel OS, or if you installed
flash in a different directory you'll have to adjust the paths to
regsvr32.exe and swflash.ocx

Unquote.

tnx, it works.

the latter path in my case was:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\Macromed\Flash\Flash.ocx
