Following a few messages and PM's about the O2 ads causing problems, i've thrown this quick guide to disabling flash together to save repeating it over and over again!

Remember if you want to view flash content on any other sites, you will need to follow the same steps and enable flash again.

Note that this does not stop the ads from being displayed, it only stops the animations, so does not break the sites Terms of Service.

This is based on IE7, but other browsers follow similar systems.

Go to manage add-ons :

And select "Shockwave Flash Object", then the "Disable" button, before clicking OK :

Following this change, whenever an adver tries run a flash animation you will get this warning bar :

You can just close it and carry on playing lag free

i just done what you said above and now it says ....even though i have the java.so i reinstalled java and still got problems.Java applets are not enabled on your browser

If you don't have Java, you can download from here http://java.com/en/ (please click "Java software download")

For further information you should visit the help centre for Java trouble

You can attempt to reload the game by clicking here

i think i solved the lag problem . when i disabled the "shockwave " bit ,it also diabled the java as well at the same time . i enabled te java and now it seems fine .thanks .... i got to admit - the game was almost unplayable . it was about 3 frames per second and sound was 2 to 3 seconds delay. thanks for the help.

That ladbrokescasino ad is shocking, for a family site and people with gambling problems

Just kidding by the way
