every time I open firefox 3.613 it opens with a page "https://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/" I don't want to be reminded to check my plugins, please turn this off. I use Tab Kit, and it's not ready for ff 4 so I'm not updating yet.

One of the great things about firefox when it first started was that popups and other things would appear without my wanting them were totally gone. Thank you, but if I don't want to upgrade something (at least not right away) to be nagged about it everytime I start firefox is --annoying. Please make it stop, or provide a means of turning it off or on.

Thank you,

Warren

I found that uninstalling "Viewpoint Media Player" from the windows "add/remove" program list did the trick. I haven't a clue where that came from. Thank you for you help
