In plain English, you can disable the Plugin Container for one, two, or all three plugins it is enabled for. See this:

the-edmeister,

I am glad that Mozilla finally has a link to tell Firefox users how to temporarily solve this problem. But would it be possible for you (or any other moderators/contributors) to post this link and put it as a "sticky post" so all users can see it when they come to this forum?

There are too many threads in reference to the plugin-container problem and it'll be so nice to combine them all into one thread. Also this will, hopefully, avoid any users screaming and yelling about this problem and post in a different thread.

Just a suggestion.

Thank you.
