Is that a misguided opinion? Seems to > me that most of this "fancy" stuff is a nuisance. The single most clicked thing on the web: "Skip Intro" Anyway, I'm with you! Try this: type Craig's amazing "about:config" in the address bar. Scroll down to "plugin.default_plugin_disabled" or type the first bit into the "Filter" box. It should show with status "default," type "boolean," and value "true." Double-click it to toggle to false. Now try a page you know gave you the Install Missing Plugins junk. -- Darrin Chandler | Phoenix BSD Users Group dwchandler@stilyagin.com | http://bsd.phoenix.az.us/ http://www.stilyagin.com/ | --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change you mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
