       I  agree,  but  before removing pluginreg.dat I  checked  that
       those configs (which should be saved somewhere else) where not
       changed.

       For  example  if  you change "Always Activate"  with  "Ask  to
       Activate"  in  any plugin, quit firefox, remove  pluginreg.dat
       and  restart  firefox you will see that "Ask to  Activate"  is
       still there.
