There is a nice extension for mozilla/firebird which does this.
Basically any flash shows up as an empty box with a "click to view"
message in it.  Click the flash you want, ignore the stuff you don't.
Not sure if galeon has the ability to use those sorts of extensions
though...

Check "flash click to view" out at
