How do I de-install Flashblock

Asked by Ralph Williams

I recently installed Flashblock due to a problem I was having and now I need to remove it but I don't know how. It shows up in Firefox but I do not see it in "Ubuntu Software Center" for installed software. Can you help. I am running 12.04.
Thanks

I was able to remove it when I correctly named it: Should be Flashblock not Flashblocker???
