Is a plugin like Windows Media Player or Flash used if you check this in IE?

Your System Details list doesn't show any plugin, so you may have to install this plugin for Firefox if you only have one for IE.

In what way do you connect to this camera?

Is that via a web based interface (URL to a stream) or via a plugin?

Note that ActiveX is only supported by IE and not by other browsers.

Brand name and model number of those cctv cameras? I am interested in finding a manual online for those cams and the software they use, to see if they are IE-only (use ActiveX).

they are mainly Apexis and DB power I find that clicking on server push for Firefox lets me see the cameras.
