Don't you mean FF + Flashblock?
Flashblock is nice - it replaces flash with a clickable button. |

AFAIK Fx + Adblock (Ctrl+Shift+F) can block Flash as well. Flashblock is probably easier, but I'm not inclined to install more extensions than I have to. Come to think of it, I also use NoScript and that blocks Flash as well. |

But the OP wants 'control' as opposed to 'blocking' (?) |

Orbit Downloader will download embedded FLV files. I'm not quite sure what you mean by control. Could you be a bit more specific? |

By "Control" I mean make it STOP if I want it to STOP.
What do FLV files have to do with Flash advertisements? |

That is the wrong way round in my world. 
FF + Flashblock makes it START if you want it to START. |
