John, To the best of my knowledge, Natively Firefox does not have group policy support provided by Mozilla, it does not use the registry for the most part for it’s configuration settings, instead is uses sqllite database files an text based .js files.
That being said if you really want group policy support a commercial product “PolicyPak Application Manager” from PolicyPak software is available. Policypak.com. We have use it with good results. But remember Group Policy is very powerful. And with great power comes great responsibility. Excelsior! If you want to roll your own config look into Mike Kaply’s CCK2 product, it reportedly works with different OS’s using the same config files, but I have not used it myself. Since you are now tasked with supporting Firefox in you enterprise, gird your loins and prepare for technical battle. Good luck. John Delise Windows Deployment Engineer [Image32] VW Credit, Inc.

When users load your site, they will either see the "Activate Adobe Flash" UI in the web page (if the Flash content's dimensions are large enough) or a tiny plugin icon in the address bar (for Flash "pixels" that are too small for the UI). I recommend that you add a check for Flash being installed and activated. If Flash is installed but not activated automatically, your page can show instructions guiding users to click the "Activate Adobe Flash" and "Allow and Remember" buttons. A dedicated workflow like this to test for click-to-activate is probably more user friendly and reliable than just loading your regular Flash content and hoping users see and click the "Activate Adobe Flash" when your Flash content doesn't show up. In Firefox, Flash in click-to-activate mode will still be detectable by JavaScript in the navigator.plugins[] array (i.e. navigator.plugins["Shockwave Flash"]). Your JavaScript can detect that Flash is installed but not activated by embedding a Flash <object> that reports whether it is running or not by setting some JavaScript variable using Flash's ExternalInterface. I don't know if someone has already written a JavaScript+Flash library that already handles this click-to-activate, but I would love to know. In Chrome, however, Flash in click-to-activate mode will NOT be detectable in the navigator.plugins[] array, so JavaScript can't differentiate between Flash not be installed from installed-but-not-activated for this site. thanks, From: Benjamin Smedberg [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, August 18, 2017 1:24 PM To: John Mayers <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Cc: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: Flash Allow List John, thank you for reaching out.
