flashblockdetector. Mark Pilgrim’s JavaScript library for detecting if the user has a Flash blocker enabled, such as FlashBlock for Firefox and Chrome or ClickToFlash for Safari. One good use of this would be to inform users that they need to opt-in to Flash for unobtrusive Flash enhancements (such as invisible audio players) to work on that page.

If a website decides to detect that I'm blocking its flash ads, and serve up plain old image ads in their place, that is JUST FINE. They can go right ahead.
