Mozilla to automatically disable almost all Firefox plug-ins

  • USA: Thursday, January 31 - 2013 at 01:45

Mozilla has announced that it would automatically disable all plug-ins in Firefox, except the latest version of Adobe's Flash Player, citing security and stability reasons for the move, PC World has reported. The feature, called "click-to-play," has been part of Firefox since version 17, which launched last November, but Mozilla will restrict plug-ins even further going forward. The block will include up-to-date versions of popular plug-ins such as Adobe's Acrobat Reader, Microsoft's Silverlight and Oracle's Java.
