There persists significant confusion caused by the Mozilla developers,
who have lumped plugins and extensions under the single term "add-on".
Extensions are executables that are installed via your operating system
(in your case, Windows) independently of what browser you are using.
Extensions are modifications to existing browsers or E-mail applications
that are installed specifically for such applications. They do not
function alike. They are not installed alike. They are not alike.
Seems like you must've mistyped above. Shouldn't the last instance of
"Extensions are..." read "Add-ons are..."? Otherwise you're contrasting
extensions vs. extensions.
No, it should have been "Plugins are executables...".
