This might help:

Go to about:config (type it in the location bar), type 'plugin' in the 
filter box, and change plugin.default_plugin_disabled to false. 
<URL:http://kb.mozillazine.org/About:config_entries#Plugin..2A> says it 
should help, but I remember messing with it preferences, and it didn't 
really make sense. But I don't remember what it did, it might help.
