Mozilla is trying to get away from recommending Plugins so I suspect
in the near future some of that stuff will be ripped out. If you want
a specific Plugin, you just need to go to it's official website and
install it... you cannot install Plugins through Firefox/SeaMonkey
anyway... they have to be installed at the OS level.


So how will I find out what plug-ins I need and where to get them from??



When a web page requires a plugin that you don't have, it usually tells 
you just that.


If you want to check on what you already have, put about:plugins in the 
URL bar.

What plugins do you use?

I have Adobe Flash and VLC Web plugin, both installed and updated 
through Kubuntu.
