hello J-sus, that is a legitimate part of firefox, that for licensing issues has to be shipped as a plugin. do you have any particular reason you want to remove that?: http://andreasgal.com/2014/10/14/openh264-now-in-firefox/

My virus and malware programs alert all the time. I am now using my other computer writing you this mail because this "malware" has certain effects on computer performance. You don't know?

You can toggle this pref to false on the about:config page.

• media.gmp-gmpopenh264.provider.enabled = false

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

The plugin itself is stored in the gmp-gmpopenh264 folder if you really want to remove the plugin.

Thank you very much! It worked. This was very helpful.
