At some point, ALL plugins using the NPAPI interface are destined to stop working in Firefox. If all goes according to plan, the Firefox "extended support release" (ESR) next Spring will allow you to keep using Silverlight for the rest of the year, so Stan has plenty of time to transition to other solutions. Or you could use Internet Explorer if they don't.
