plugin container.exe in running process's
maxo...@yahoo.com
sites this plug-in container.exe is in task manager under running
process's.
well i don't like the plug-in sucking up my memory.
if u guys add this to ff i don't want it. how do i get rid of this
plug-in.
if this can not be removed ill uninstall ff find another browser to
use.
i thought this Firefox browser was suppose to be fast/safer and use
less memory.

AFAIK it is not FF's fault but Adobes. The culprit may well be
the famous flash player. If you want to stop the widespread
misuse of flash by inapt web designers, you may employ several
helpers: NoScript, Flashblock, Adblock-plus, ...

The plugin-container is only doing a job which Firefox would
otherwise have to do itself. IIRC you can disable it, but then
Firefox is going to have to do job itself and use the memory
itself.
If you really truly do need to save memory, uninstall all of your
Firefox plugins which you see listed at "Tools >> Add-Ons >> Plugins".
What disabling plugin-container will do is transfer the memory
consumed by these plugins from plugin-container.exe to Firefox.exe.

What is this "u guys add this"? This is a user-to-user newsgroup.
The plugin-container can be disabled, as has been discussed in
earlier threads. I don't have the link in front of me, but you can
look it up yourself from the Google Groups Advanced Search here:
http://groups.google.com/groups/advanced_search?num=30&q=%22plugin-container%22+group:mozilla.support.firefox

This is a user-to-user support group, not a company sales department.
I don't expect the Firefox users in here are making money from you
using Firefox. so I don't expect this "threat" to do much.

Let me know if you find one that can magically use plugins without them
taking up any memory.

We also speak English here.
"u" is NOT a pronoun, nor does one (ever) use an apostrophe to indicate
a plural, "process's". It's "processes".
Apostrophes are primarily for possessives and contractions.
Thus endeth the lesson.

Sry to say ppl use the letter U=you on internet, Reverend Ozone u
should already know this.
did u understand my msg if so then U works fine. this is the internet
i don't have to type everything perfect. It is called shorthand
internet typing.
I can care less if u" is NOT a pronoun. Letter U is not a English
letter last i looked it was.
As the rest of u all thx for the help :)

The only "lessons" preached here are support issues and problems, not
grammar or spelling lessons. Support is given regardless of posting

It has been tried in the past to simplify the language down to a series
of constants or single letters. It was found that you must have
characters represent both constants and vowels to accurately convey the
word. Those early attempts was early Iberian, Hebrew and some early
northern European alphabets.
Let us not go through what history has proven to be an inadequate to
communicate ideas.

You understand getting help here depends on the good will of the
voluntary contributors. There is no obligation, no contract, just noting
that obliges anyone here to help anyone else. Only good humour and an
interest in having other Firefox users living a good experience, and in
learning. Because you learn by helping.
So, if you want to get help you might consider to accept the unwritten
rules of the news group. And people like a minimum of politeness and of
correct language. This is not a college or an entry class in university.
Thanks for your understanding.
Was your problem solved ?

It would be best if most people stop acting as pseudo-moderators
referencing made up unwritten rules, and stick to what they are here for
- to help people. That's why this forum exists.
Being a volunteer is not an excuse to be mean to anyone in any Mozilla
forum. We have written rules at
<http://www.mozilla.org/about/forums/etiquette.html>.
The first one is "be civil" and the third one is "be kind to newcomers".
This is especially true in user support forums. People come here when
they are having a problem with Firefox; we should expect a certain
amount of frustration to begin with.
Nitpicking about "u" vs "you" is a waste of time and doesn't help the user.
Having said all that, everyone gets in a bad mood every once in a while,
so the occasional meanness might happen. Just remember to apologize.

is pretty much like what Google Chrome does with plugins. It is an
attempt to separate the crash of a plugin from taking Firefox down with
it. Yes, it takes RAM, and yet, the plugin MAY crash, but I haven't
seen it take Firefox down, yet.

[Was the starting thread understandable? This is to all the people
complaining a bout my internet English].
Sry this how i type im use to it im not going to change for any1.
Don't like it then don't reply to any of my threads it's simple as
that. So many fussy people that have nothing better to do but
criticize a person who ask a simple question.
To all the people that help me thanks for Ur time and effort.

Come to think of it im really sry for even bother coming to this

will be perfect.
And again i think u all that help me an defend my typing too im
greatly respectful for the help.
I doubt I'll ever come here to post a thread again.

You communicate any way you want, that's not an issue. What IS an issue
is by doing it your way "may" not be understandable to some folks,
especially those where English isn't their first language and can help
because they are aware of the problems and can help with an answer. If
you want help then make it easy for all of the peer support volunteers.
You are welcome to post here. You can post anyway you desire but if you
make it difficult for support folks to help then you may not get the
help you need.

Now, now, leave the illiterate alone!
Now before people start coming down on me, realize that illiterate
means "not able to read or write" and it's clear that this guy can't
write. So I am using the word in proper usage. If you wish to see it
as offensive then that's your doing!
The amazing part is that this illiterate defends his illiteracy and
seems to wear is as a badge of honor. Such is the case with the up and
coming internet generation ("Internet English"? That's a new one on
me). They can't be bothered with learning the rules of capitalization
nor punctuation. Those are too much of a bother! No, no you should do
all of the work to figure out (read "guess") what he meant. I can only
find solace in realization that people like this must battle with
computers all the time since computers, unlike some people, will not
guess what you mean but do exactly what you say (and often just fail
if you cannot communicate properly).
And so I leave you with this. It is where we are headed...
Here is a plan on how to make the English Language more consisent
For example, in Year 1 that useless letter "c" would be dropped to be
replased either by "k" or "s", and likewise "x" would no longer be
part of the alphabet.
The only kase in which "c" would be retained would be the "ch"
formation, which will be dealt with later.
Year 2 might reform "w" spelling, so that "which" and "one" would take
the same konsonant, wile Year 3 might well abolish "y" replasing it
with "i" and iear 4 might fiks the "g/j" anomali wonse and for all.
Jenerally, then, the improvement would kontinue iear bai iear with
iear 5 doing awai with useless double konsonants, and iears 6-12 or so
modifaiing vowlz and the rimeining voist and unvoist konsonants.
Bai iear 15 or sou, it wud fainali bi posibl tu meik ius ov thi
ridandant letez "c", "y" and "x" -- bai now jast a memori in the
maindz ov ould doderez -- tu riplais "ch", "sh", and "th" rispektivli.
