Hi Gigi, You can disable and delete browser extensions in Safari preferences, from the "Extensions" tab, but the only way you can remove browser plug-ins is to delete them from the ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ folder of your account, as I believe Tim Kilburn instructed you. If the plug-ins that you either move or delete from this location are named "Adobe", then nothing else will get disabled except for these functions. If you want to take precautions, move the plug-ins to another location, such as your Desktop. That way you can always move them back, if they perform some other needed function. Sorry, I cannot tell you the name of the Adobe plug-in files, since I've avoided installing their plug-ins since Tiger.
