Hi Good People at Firefox

Firstly may I say that you have created a great product which kicked MS's ass for a long time however I'm now concerned that the latest updates are pushing my poor old desktop to the limit.

Upgraded to 4 today and the dreaded plugin container loaded yet again. On a PC with 512k memory and FF's notoriously bad memory management (i.e. it doesnt release memory when tabbed windows are closed) the plugin container is the last thing I need.

So can you tell me which is the most up to date version of FF that doesnt include the plugin-container option ? i.e. the last version of Firefox before plugin container.

I think it was version 3.?? but now I cannot revert to the previous installation to find out.

Thanks

Michael Dalton

You can disable the plugin-container in any Firefox version that uses it.

You can set the pref dom.ipc.plugins.enabled to false on the about:config page to disable the plugin-container process (OOPP)

To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

Thanks Cor-el but I was lead to believe that if I were to disable the plugin and then access sites that have video content, I'd find an error message which says something along the lines of "Your media player has been unable to play this video content :( "

I still want to view video content but just not via the plugin container program.

The plugin-container program is the program that runs a plugin separate from the Firefox program. If you disable "Out-Of-Process-Plugins" then Firefox will run the plugins locally without using the plugin-container, so they will still run. However if the plugin-container process is disabled and a plugin crashes then the Firefox program will crash as well. That is what OOPP avoids.
