There is a flashblock.jar file. It is in root/chrome. I think it comes with KM.
One time, and I don't remember the version, there was a problem with it, and some way was given to fix the problem.
I found the replacement Jar file. I cannot attach here because it is 1,637kb. It is not flashblock jar which is replaced, it is embed.jar.
You do have flash installed already? Mine reads like this:
Shockwave Flash File name: NPSWF32.dll Shockwave Flash 10.1 r85
content flashblock jar:embed.jar!/flashblock/content/flashblock/

Disabling Flash, Java, and JavaScript
5. To disable flash, you can install flashblock:
http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/wiki/FlashBlock
6. To disable Java and Javascript, go to Edit > Preferences > General and uncheck Enable Java and Enable JavaScript.

Pick one of these files:
* Flashblock with border around replacing element
http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/wiki/?binary=internal%3A%2F%2Fbaf7d710ef60a5b5d5be5fb0b7f5eb27.zip
* Flashblock without border around replacing element
http://kmeleon.sourceforge.net/wiki/?binary=internal%3A%2F%2F262abadcb153799ebba460a4a5e10dbc.zip
Choosing is only a matter of taste. Both configurations work the same.
Then proceed to install as follows:
* KM menu: Edit/Preferences/Settings go to the tab userContent.css and add these lines at the bottom:
object:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000?,
objectswflash.cab?
{ -moz-binding: url("chrome://flashblock/content/flash.xml#obj?"); }
* Extract the downloaded file to K-Meleon chrome directory (in KM's main directory).
* Make a backup copy of the file named installed-chrome.txt
* Edit installed-chrome.txt and add the following line:
content,install,url,jar:resource:/chrome/flashblock.jar!/content/flashblock/
* Important notice: if you've chosen the second file (flashblock-noborders.jar), rename it flashblock.jar or change the line above to work with the longer name.
* At this stage K-Meleon should be closed.
* Delete chrome.rdf
* Restart KM

Well, sounds slightly complicated to me, and perhaps yet more to new users trying to figure out if KM is a browser that can block flash and how... :cool:

Its was not complicated when all the files were present and You could peek into them and compare. A step by step description/recipe. A find the file or code line and do exactly what is described. Now without the files it sounds hard.
BTW. I was a new user when that was written. It was a steep learning curve but possible. Like all rookies, I followed those old recipes to the letter, keeping backups. When I made a mistake - I had to try again.

Sorry no idea, report it as bug - since the beta is an official version now.

Just installed KM 1.6 beta and the first problem (of course!) is flashblock.
Lost that little icon that you can have in KM 1.5.4 and the drop down dialog box with options.
Any ideas much appreciated.

You used Desga2's flashblock extension for KM 1.5.x which included that button. You can see the flashblock options in KMv1.6b from the Privacy-Permissions menu and from the page context menu. Try this attachment. It includes a button with a right-click menu with both of the options. Extract to your K-Meleon directory.

js is required to disable flash while allowing active toggle without the need to reload the page or enabling all flash content on that page. [...]
js insecurity is overhyped.. very soon most websites will not offer non-js support=completely crippled without js..so, anyway it's a personal choice but don;t think it's justified
