The only plugins Netscape did originally supply with Communicator 4.X was

LiveAudio (one they designed for sound
Default plugin which basic calls a program that ask you to get required plugin
RealPlayer 8 which is out of date they now gone to ReaplayerG2 which if
it had a version number would be something like 10.5
and Shockwave (one version only)

The problem with contracting to provide plugins is that in order for
plugin maker to make it worthwhile to provide is to go with multi year
contract. The problem with that is that the plugin may go through 10 -20
revisions over the life of the contract. So you end up with old
technology for years to come.

The only plugins Netscape/ Moz should provide is the "default" and the
MRJ plugin.
