Videos Automatically Showing

[zebo]

I have recently found that if there is a video available on a web page it will start even if I don't click on it, it tends to move to the bottom right corner of the screen Does anyone have any ideas to stop it happening? I'm using Chrome and windows 10 Thanks

Annoying isn't it. Setting flash to only go on specific permission can help, but if you give permission to watch one thing it doesn't seem to stop newspapers and YouTube abusing the permission and starting another video after the first. It's not even as if I have unlimited data !

Always make sure you stop the video you are watching, before it finishes. A couple of seconds before, will do. That will stop the next vid from starting and you can get rid of the link in the normal way.

Ah. Having read your question again this appears to happen as you're scrolling down a page. I find if you keep on scrolling, it stops.
