The plugins are disabled, so it really doesn't matter that they are listed.

Plugins (not extensions) are actually installed and removed independently of Thunderbird and other Mozilla-based applications. If you installed an application that provides a plugin, Thunderbird will find it. To remove a plugin, you must use the "Programs and Features" capability reached through the Windows Control Panel. That will remove both the plugin and the application that provided it. Of course, you can use Thunderbird's Add-ons Manager to get the name of the plugin's file, usually ending in ".dll". Then do a windows search for that file and delete it. If that totally corrupts your system, too bad. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/> Paraphrasing Mark Twain, who was quoting someone else: There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and alternative truths.
