Preventing plugun scanning will (I think) disable the use of the plugins
in Firefox.

Nope.

Went into about:config again, changed:
plugin.scan.Acrobat from "5.0" to "9"

I believe that particular change will result in Firefox NOT opening
Acrobat Reader (AR) if the installed version of AR is less than 9. So
in effect you disable AR with that setting if you have AR version 6.

I do indeed have version 6.0.6.401, and PDFs open just fine (I tested) either
*in* Firefox, in an external "instance" of AR, or even in Foxit.

Flash (ver 10.1.102.64) is also working fine (I often visit Youtube and others).
