May be an obsolete plugin. Make sure that you are using the plugins from
1.6b and not those from prior versions. You may have to move the plugins
from your plugin directory to a temp directory where Mozilla can't find
them. Start Mozilla. If it now works, move plugins back until you break
it. Worked for me!
