Content that refuses to be blocked

I love being able to use the Block Content feature to get rid of annoying ads on sites. In some cases, this makes the difference between a site being usable and not worth visiting.

However, some material refuses to let me block it. Mainly Flash animations I think (no, I don't want to turn Flash off, because I need it ...)

Is this material simply not blockable?
If it is blockable, how do I block it?
If it isn't, are there any plans to make it possible in a future version?

I'm using Opera 10:51, as upgraded from 10.10.

Yes, there are also annoying little 'survey' boxes that appear and can't be blocked.

Block Content seems to be greyed out for me - I don't know why.
