Since I had no interest in Flash to begin with, I didn't install Flash.  The difficulty there is that I can't figure out how to tell Firefox that I'm not interested in Flash, as Firefox keeps "helpfully" pointing out that Flash is not installed and the webpage "needs" Flash to be installed.

I may not desire Flash, but I still want to occasionally see images (load images by default is of course turned off).  I've heard that an alternative text-only browser, Links, can do images, but I know Lynx can't do images.
