"Container Plugin for Firefox" wants to access Internet. Ok?

I've recently updated to FireFox 24.0 running Windows XP SP3. Now my firewall (Windows 7 Firewall Control vs 5.0.0.15) gives me a notice that he has blocked the following program:

Mozilla Corporation
Container plugin for Firefox
Firefox
License: MPL license 2
plugin - container.exe
Firefox
24.0

Is - this legitimate part of FireFox?
Require access to the Internet?
If Yes, what level of access do I need (e.g., WebBrowserZone, FTPZone, Web + FTPZone)?

You would need at least access to the browser, but plugins can also use other TCP and UDP connections, you may need to keep an eye on it in case of problems. Plugins will not use FTP connections.

  • Container plugin for firefox still plays the audio ads. I'm deleting it and he returned without permission. How can I get rid of him?

    Hello
    You talked about the process of container Plugin, so I assume you really mean ads Flash. In this case, you need at least a few options to choose from:
    (1) you can uninstall the Adobe Flash plugin . This will get rid of the real plugin, the Plugin container 'contains', but it will most likely be unwanted side effects: you will not be able to play some Flash games, or watch Flash video on Web sites that use them (e.g. Facebook).
    (2) you could install an ad blocking extension in Firefox, like AdBlock Plus. These lots of ad, Flash extensions block not only those, but they can not and do not all ads block. If this is the path you choose, just head to the Addon Manager, enter 'Adblock' in the search field and install extensions referring to research. I do not use one of them myself, so I give my opinion on which of them, you need to install.
    (3) my personal way preferred: Set Adobe Flash "Click to play" on Firefox. This will keep the Flash Plugin on your computer, but will allow you to opt-in to each page to see what the plugin is set to display (you can always allow websites that you want to enable Flash automatically, it just will not be the default behavior for more).

  • How can I correct an error "Container Plugin for Firefox has stopped working"?

    Windows 7, Firefox 30

    After changing how manipulated Firefox cookies (changed by banning 3rd party cookies, ask permission to set cookies), I rebooted my system and Firefox would not - I got the error message in question.

  • I have Adobe Flash Player Plugin for Firefox, but still miss me Flash Player?

    So I installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player Plugin for Firefox and I am able to watch videos of youtube on my browser and other things that require flash player, but I have a disc that I got with my Samsung screen, and when I put it in my computer, it says that I do not actually have flash player. Also, when I try to play a game, DawnGate, theres a black box where a video should be and he says that I don't have a flash drive, and it is necessary to watch these videos. I tried to uninstall and I was unable to Watch youtube videos, and when I reinstalled, I was able to Watch youtube even once, but that did not fix my problem. Is there something that I am missing? I look forward to hearing from someone soon.

    Chances are that it is looking for the IE plugin: (a lot of software just assumes all Windows users are "slaves to Microsoft" and only have IE installed.)

    Flash Player ActiveX (Internet Explorer)

    or the stand-alone version of the player:

  • Google web toolkit plugin for firefox (1.23) disables the back button of the browser. How do fix us this?

    I have Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin for firefox (1.23). It worked for me, but I recently discovered that in my browser back button has been disabled. By trial and error, I discovered that it's the GWT developer Plugin that is the culprit. When I disable the plugin, the previous button starts working again. When I re - activate the plugin, the back button stops working. Has anyone else encountered this problem? My firefox is version 19.0. Anyone know what would cause the plugin to start to disable the back button?

    Have you tried to use Firefox 23? This is the version you should be running.

  • Apparent lists with different versions of PDF plugin for Firefox

    Two Firefox 37.0.2 Adobe Acrobat plug-ins are listed:

    Adobe Acrobat 11.0.10.32 (Adobe PDF plugin for Firefox and Netscape 11.0.10)

    Adobe Acrobat 15.7.20033.2203 (Adobe PDF plugin for Firefox and Netscape 15.7.20033)

    All Adobe applications (including the two above) come as part of our Adobe Creative Cloud subscription.

    Questions:

    1. why the two plugins listed?

    2. the two entries represent a plug in handset, or are indeed two different versions of the Adobe Acrobat plugin installed?

    3. How can the apparently older plug-ins be uninstalled?

    Windows 7 installed programs indicates that an entry of Adobe Reader:

    Adobe Reader XI (11.0.10)

    We have recently updated to Adobe Acrobat DC. It is listed under programs such as:

    Adobe Acrobat DC

    Hi BigMacMan,

    Both plug-ins are for two different versions of Acrobat. The last (version 15.7...) is for Acrobat DC.

    Best,

  • No sound, but also no container of Firefox/Plugin for Firefox in Volume Controll

    So, today, on my work computer I came without any volume in Firefox. I thought a reboot and that would fix it does not. Anyway, here's the question:

    I have my volume mixer upward, but there is no firefox/plugin for ff on adapt. For some reason, it's the same thing with chrome. IE (yuck) works with volume, but I don't think I can go on much longer without my beloved Add-ons. Any help is appreciated.

    the recent update of the plugin flash to adobe for version 11.3 caused a lot of problems. You can try to remove flash 11.3 of the section of the configuration/program windows downgrade to an earlier version & Control Panel, until adobe fixes these problems.
