	Obviously, this works and is O.K. But a better way to do this is to
make a link in the Plugins directory of Mozilla (NOT Mozilla1.6).  The
difference is that a link doesn't use additional disk space and that if
you use the Mozilla/plugins directory Mozilla1.7 will automatically have
the link to the plug in.
