I want to block the Update plugins pop up. I have a G5 MAC running Power PC processors. The newer versions of Flash and Java are for Intel processors. I can not utilize those newer updates. So if I can't have Fire Fox stop popping up that annoying reminder then, I will be forced to uninstall Fire Fox and use Safari.

You can set the plugins.update.url pref to an empty string and set the plugins.hide_infobar_for_outdated_plugin pref to true on the about:config page.
