FRJ's Plug-ins

Return to Home

Plug-Ins are code patches that enhance your browser.  Normally they address sound and video.  The Adobe plug-in that allows reading of a PDF file is a "must-have" for technical types.

Microsoft plug-ins work diffrently than do Netscape plug-ins.  Microsoft uses Active-X controls.

Removing a plug-in is more difficult than adding one !!!

Take drastic action.  While installing a third hard drive, I wiped out everything on the first drive, forcing me to reinstall all of my applications from scratch.  This did get rid of all those plug-ins.  This is NOT the recommended procedure.

Plug-Ins for Netscape
Netscape Plug-ins Netscape's plug-in page is a good starting point.
Browser Watch Here is where you find the links to all of the plug-ins available on the net.
Removing Plug-ins Plug-in removal is a non-trivial task.
Last Resort Not reccomended but it might work.
