# 6.4. Plugins

Currently, Konqueror supports Netscape 4.x plugins.

When KDE starts up, it looks in the following directories for `.so` files containing plugin code.

`/usr/local/netscape/plugins`
`/opt/netscape/plugins`
`/opt/netscape/communicator/plugins`
`/usr/lib/netscape/plugins`
`$HOME/.netscape/plugins`
`$MOZILLA_HOME/plugins`
`$NPX_PLUGIN_PATH`

It examines every plugin to find out which MIME types the plugin supports. It then creates MIME type definitions for KDE in the user's

       ~/.kde/share/mimelnk

directory to make other applications aware of the new mime types.

The result is that when you LMK click on a file with a mime type supported by one of your Netscape plugins Konqueror should display it correctly.

You can install new Netscape plugins such as Macromedia Flash in the directories mentioned above.
