How to turn off FireFox Plug-in

[StupidUser]

Hi. I've been using Firefox lately because it is the only browser that, when I click on a video link, it opens the video in VLC instead of in the browser browser window. I upgraded VLC from 1.0.3 to 1.0.5 (which uninstalls 1.0.3, then installs 1.0.5).

During the install 1.0.5 portion, there was an option to add a Firefox (or maybe it said Mozilla) plug-in. I thought it sounded like a good option, since that's where I do my browsing and video watching and selected it. Now when I click on a movie in a web page, the movie opens within the web page. Not only that, but there are no controls in the window (like Run, Pause, Volume, etc.).

I cannot find a setting for the plug-in anywhere in VLC. How do I turn off - or better, uninstall - this plug-in in Firefox (and can I do the same in other browsers)?

Thanks for your help.

OK, this turned out to be easy. At least it was once I realized that Firefox calls plug-ins "Add-ons". After that, it's right in the Tools menu: Click Tools, Add-ons, scroll to VLC's addon, click it, then click Disable.

I still wonder if I can do this in other browsers. If anyone knows how to get media to play in the program instead of the browser window in Google Chrome and IE, please post.

Thx.

You need browser extensions/plugins for that.
