Just noticed a "new" plugin in the Add-Ons Manager. It's called the
"Active Touch General Plugin Container", and the associated information
says it was "updated" (probably installed) on Thursday of last week.
I know there is something called Plugin Container in the SM software
somewhere, but have no idea what this one is or where it came from. I
definitely don't recall asking for it.
Any ideas or suggestions? Can I get rid of it? Or should I do something
else with it?
All suggestions gratefully accepted.

Is it really a plugin? Or is it an extension? In either case, first
test what happens if it is disabled. Go to [Tools > Add-ons Manager] on
the SeaMonkey menu bar.
If it is an extension, select Extensions on the left side of the Add-ons
Manager window. On the Extensions pane, find the extension and select
the Disable button.
If it is a plugin, select Plugins on the left side of the Add-ons
Manager window. On the Plugins pane, find the plugin and select the
pull-down menu to the right. Select "Never Activate".
If you see nothing adverse over one or two weeks, it can be removed.
To remove an extension repeat the process of disabling it, but select
the Remove button for it. No, you do not have to enable it before
removing it.
To remove a plugin, launch the Windows Control Panel and select Programs
and Features. Find the plugin in the list of programs, right-click, and
select Uninstall.
I assumed it was a plugin, since it was listed with plugins in the
Add-Ons Manager. However, it's not listed in the Programs and Features
portion of the Control Panel. There is no Remove button with it.
I have marked it Never Activate, and we'll see.
