Ton.
Flashblock will block (disable) Flash by default (so no more adverts) but allow Flash on sites where I actually want to view Flash (ie. youtube).

You basically create a "white list" of sites where Flash is permitted. It's the best extension for Firefox on the desktop IMHO! On the N800 it will be awesome as you won't be wasting cpu cycles (and thus battery) displaying Flash adverts you never really look at, but youtube will be unaffected (once it's added to the white list).
