Plugin?

Post by Rajiv »

After I downloaded Firefox yesterday - I could at least pick up the video, and other things, but....
It keeps on saying that I need to download a plugin!? Can anyone tell; what a 'plugin' is and what must I do to solve this issue. And by the way, it scans my PC for additional plugins and says that no plugins could be found.

A link to the video might be helpful.

(Any reason this couldn't go in your other thread?)

Extensions - nothing.
Plugins - Mozilla Default Plug-In, the others have nothing to do with this.

OK whenever I go Tools, Add-ons, Plugins, I selected Mozilla Default Plug-in and clicked on Find Updates. It goes to the Mozilla Plugin Check and checks - obviously. But when it is done it says that there is an error and that I must retry, which I did but to no avail.
