Stupid question

Ok, so i’m just wondering how to get rid of something.
When I put a flash file in an html page, I have to click on it before I can do anything when I run it in IE, but when run in FireFox, I don’t have to click on it. It’s just a little annoying. Is there a way to turn that off?

oh, and just wanted to say thanks to everyone, this forum has been very helpful.
