Copied the files to /usr/lob/mozilla-1.4.2/plugins
 and it shows up in Mozilla -> help -> Plugins            so that works

However I made the link in there also /usr/lib/mozilla-1.4.2/plugins 
          when should have made it in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins

so what is the command to remove the symbolic link from
         /usr/lib/mozilla-1.4.2/plugins 
and then I will reapply in 
         /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins

Thanks Chris Cz (newbie)
