I hate FireFox. Through dozens of installs, versions, and even
reformats, it's so slow I don't see how anyone can use it.
Unfortunately, it must be used at some sites. Ever since I
allowed it to update to v3.6.3 (or maybe the version before
that), things have gotten even worse. It's even slower than
before, but it also disabled the "RealPlayer Browser Record
Plugin" where you are supposed to have a pop-up button on
every embedded video for "Download" and other options.
It also disabled the right click on the clip and "Download"!
That still works fine for IE, but it has vanished in FF.
This does not work:

It ridiculously says to DISABLE it, and it will work! ????
(But again, the problem was NOT caused by updating RP,
but after updating FF).
Also, every single time I click "Restart FireFox" regardless of
what plugin is installed/enabled/disabled, it NEVER starts! I
repeatedly click to manually try and start it again, and there
can be 20+ "firefox.exe" running in the Task Manager! The only
way it will start again, is to wait about 15 minutes.....yes,
that's 15 minutes of WAITING for it to load, or restarting my
PC.
This also does not work:
http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Using+the+RealPlayer+plugin+with+Firefox#RealPlayer_plugin_is_not_recognized
Both of the files are where they should be.
RealPlayer keeps claiming there are no updates more than a year
after installing it (v 11.1.3) so it cannot be updated.
So I need to know either what's wrong with the RP plugin and
why it won't work, or how to go back to a previous version of
FF.
Thanks,
