ClickToPlugin

Note: Due to Apple’s new development policies, version 3.2 is the final version of ClickToPlugin.

ClickToPlugin is a lightweight and highly customizable extension that prevents Safari from launching plug-ins automatically, resulting in faster browsing, reduced fan usage, and increased battery life. It replaces every plug-in object by an unobtrusive placeholder that can be clicked to load the embedded content. Further, it can replace many plug-in-based media players by Safari’s native HTML5 media player. ClickToFlash is a restriction of ClickToPlugin that only deals with Flash content.

ClickToPlugin is currently localized in English, French, German, Spanish, Catalan, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Polish, Turkish, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.
