That's almost  right. :-)

Firefox (and Chrome AFAIK) have removed support for external plugins.
All plugins, except Flash in Firefox. (Chrome has its own internal
Flash player.)

It's going away & there is nothing you can do to alter that. Move away
from any content that requires plugins. They are insecure and cause
browser crashes. It's time to let go.
