Firefox to introduce click-to-play option to protect against dangerous plugins

Mozilla developer Jared Wein is introducing a new security feature to Firefox 14 called click-to-play. Plugins will not load automatically when visiting websites using things like Flash and Java requiring the user to click before the content is loaded. This could prevent many common drive-by attacks on the web.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=nakedsecurity.sophos.com&blog=15254721&post=164005&subd=sophosnews&ref=&feed=1" width="1" height="1" /><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/nakedsecurity/~4/_fwi654iT9c" height="1" width="1"/>
