I've been trying to use the mouse less when web browsing. However, if a flash program gets the focus, it will capture the all the keyboard strokes, making it impossible to do anything without moving the mouse first. Is there any way around this?
1While I can understand the need for it for certain Flash applets, this has been annoying me with Chrome (and pretty much all browser for that matter) for years. I have to click the mouse somewhere in the page (outside of the Flash applet) to be able to do so much as changing tabs.

Firefox, on XP and Ubuntu, but mainly XP. – Eugene M – 2009-12-29T18:42:54.917
1Using Vimperator on Linux, I've also had this issue, and it's really annoying. – Dentrasi – 2009-12-29T18:50:15.167
2I'll admit this is one of the most annoying features of most flash pages, when my default Firefox shortcuts no longer work due to some flash app. – Darren Hall – 2009-12-29T18:50:54.867
