Hi, I reinstalled FF and used mozbackup for my bookmark backup etc.

But now i'm experiencing problems with my plugins, I tried watching a youtube movie fullscreen but it go's fullscreen for 1 sec and back to normal again... Very frustating, so i went to FF add-on manager to check if everything is up to date.

The flash plugin isnt showing up anywhere, but i noticed the adobe pdf reader was outdated. So I updated through the FF links etc. Now I have 2 Adobe reader plugins installed and the old 1 keeps telling me to update... Again very frustating.

I now have the following in my FF add-on manager:

Extensions: Adobe acrobat - create PDF 1.1 (disabled) and NO remove button??????? Can't do anything with that extension, I want it gone...

Plug-ins: - Adobe acrobat 11.x (newest version) - Adobe acrobat 10.x (old version) <---- Why cant i remove this EASY??? Why didnt FF remove this when i installed 11.x through the FF way?

I went to the mozilla plugincheck page and it doens't show me any adobe plugin.

For long I have hated adobe app's so thats ok, but recently FF starts going downhill for me to... :( Huge memory usage etc.. I'm a webdesigner and therefore love FF but it isn't a clean fast browser it used to be, sadly..

I already found a 'solution': "I only moved the old *.dll and *.ocx files to a different directory, deleted the old executables, and rebooted FF. "

But i consider this to be a crappy solution, can anyone tell why FF behaves like this?

--EDIT--

Thanks jscher2000,

I expected that FF had some old add-on date that wouldn't refresh, but after checking I noticed that both readers where installed on my system...... (aaargh Adobe)

Solution: I removed ALL adobe readers and installed Foxit, works great now and FF add-on refreshed instantly.

Thanks again for your time.

Most plugins are maintained outside of Firefox's folders and Firefox discovers them when the plugin installers add them to the Windows registry in a Mozilla Plugins section. Leaving them in their usual locations is preferable to copying them into Mozilla subfolders where they can become stranded and fail to update.

(Firefox does not use the .ocx files; those are ActiveX controls used by Internet Explorer.)

It's pretty hard to use the web without Flash...

Make sure to uncheck any unwanted extras.

Thanks for your reply cor-el.

But after reading the comments for the Youtube Center it scared me away from that add-on Fast...

FF/flash already uses to much RAM imho.
