Is there a way to install a plugin that makes it available under all windows login profiles?

Our client needs FIrefox installed on all their desktops and terminal servers with a specific plugin that is there for any user who logs into Windows. Is there a way to add a plugin so that it doesn't have to be installed for each user individually? If there's a command line switch for adding plugins for all users during installation that would be ideal.

Thank you

Firefox for Windows discovers plugins like Flash and Silverlight under a key in the Windows registry, so your installer needs to add an entry there.

Or did you mean an extension? Firefox will discover externally installed extensions, but won't activate them automatically. Instead, it will present an approval page to the user.
