Keep Flash fullscreen with Ignoflash, great for dual monitor setups

Ignoflash is a brilliant tool which will patch your Adobe Flash dll on windows, allowing you to watch fullscreen flash while working on your other monitor. Usually when you click away from a flash video it loses focus and shrinks back to the original webpage, however with this hack it wont and if you need to shrink it you just need to hit theĀ ESC key.

It supports Google Chrome which uses its own version of flash. 10 seconds to patch and I'm up and running again.

Don't forget, when you're patching dll's it's possible to do damage if you make a mistake, however when using Ignoflash it does actually backup the dll in the same directory so it's easy to restore the original.
