Nick: All firewalls, even the most basics, does everything you said except blocking Flash.
I myself use IE, but disabled Flash and Java. This mean that there is sometimes things in pages that I can't see, but then I know that the site I am visiting is not worth my time anyways. Any respectable site will see that all the visitors, would it be from any browser or any way possible, are able to visit the site and at least have access to the main content.
It's true, I don't think we have much pirates around here in Québec. But it is probably way more due to the fact that consumers regroup themselves here and law is on our side. Providers are entitled to supply informations on hackers so they can be arrested etc, everything adding up so newbie hackers are usually found on the spot before they become annoying, and real hackers don't just hack anybody just for the kick of it.

Listening to your words - Canada is a wonderful country! I was told about it many times, though. Jesus... If your police works so well, that it always watching hackers I was blamed a post above, then you are lucky. We have inverted situation here, in Russia. As my father said, cops in USA (he chose that country for example) looks like they are to make life of people better, and our cops (we call them militiamen, translating to your language. Very incorrect call, you may find.) looks like they work to make life of the people more bad. I think he's got the point. Our police (and the country too) is slowly moving towards hole with s**t. If we won't improve our country economy and organisation quick, we're going to have trouble. And after all we will surely get to the fate of Byzantium - we will collapse. But I hope to die in the whole country in that case, instead of...
k:. But, of course, I don't want my country to fall to pieces. Anyway, back to my topic, right now I was scanned 10 or more times, while I was writing this reply. Hope nothing will happen to my OS.
