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.
