I don't have adobe flash player installed, and don't miss the flashing ads a bit.

The only thing that annoys me: IE8 keeps asking me "this web site wants to install Adobe Flash Player", and I want to get rid of this question. I don't want to install it, not now, not ever.

So how do I make IE stop asking me about it?
