We develop our custom NPAPI plugin for Windows (.dll). When user comes to our page, in case of plugin isn't installed in users computer, Firefox suggest user to install the plugin from the link manually. We want behavior just like it operates with Adobe Flash: it suggest to automatically install missing plugin, downloads and runs installer.
