I use 3.6.12 and the plug-container.exe is huge. My browsing is considerably slower and I see recommendations to disable this file for some versions of Firefox. Is this a good thing to consider? I don’t dare to pull the trigger on this one.

When I try to install this update, I lose all connection to the internet and the “fixes” that I have found, don’t fix the problem, so I have to use 3.6.10. How about a fix Mozilla!
