I really cant stand what adobe has done to the flash player.

They totally messed it up.

My question is how do I remove the box/boarder that the new flash player puts around flash content.

Go to a site with flash content, once there hover your mouse over the content, you will notice a box/boarder around the content now.

HOW DO I REMOVE THIS, so freaking annoying!

Just leave Flash how it was Adobe.

Good to see how you come and take over macromedia, and then you jack with thier software making it a total annoyance.

Tell me how to turn this boarder crap off.

    You really are shooting off obviously without having read any of the
    hundreds of news reports on this in the last couple of months .. nor the
    hundreds of forum posts here. Do a little research before you start
    mouthing off about what adobe has done .. otherwise you are just looking
    very foolish.

    Adobe has done nothing here. Microsoft have been forced as a result of
    EOLAS suing them to change how IE works with all embedded ActiveX controls
    (including Flash).

    It is up to web site authors to change their HTML so the flash content
    doesn't need to be activated.

    There is nothing you can do about it, nor adobe, nor Microsoft.

    You can temporarily do something about it be going to MS site and
    downloading a patch that turns off this new behaviour for a month or two
    (its only a temporary fix).

    If you are a web site author, then see the many posts in the flash general
    discussion about what you should do .. in particular look at
