Default AdMuncher/flickr problem

In flickr, you know those drop-down menus up top? Well, AdMuncher blocks them. That means working with photos becomes impossible unless I close firefox, delete my cookies, disable AdMuncher, and then go back to flickr. I've been trying to figure out what exactly blocks those menus and narrowed it down to these:

Removed popup code http://l.yimg.com/g/javascript/swfobject.js.v55944.14
Removed popup code http://l.yimg.com/g/javascript/fold_...38771.48994.14
Removed popup code http://l.yimg.com/g/javascript/global.js.v55910.14

Thing is, I went to the popup menu in AdMuncher and unchecked every single box. You would think that that would fix the problem but no, I still get the three lines I posted above. Does anyone know how to get around this? Is there a way to ad flickr as a trusted site or something? Or disable that popup blocker somehow?

Let me rephrase: Have you tried using Adblock Plus instead of AdMuncher, or is there a reason you can't use it?

Can you disable AdMuncher just for Firefox and use Adblock Plus then? Also, what other programs are you using that have ads? You could probably find ad-free alternatives for them, as well.
