+>.</para>
+
+<para
+>The <guilabel
+>Scan</guilabel
+> page controls how &kde; scans for new &Netscape; plugins, either manually by pressing the <guibutton
+>Scan for New Plugins</guibutton
+> button or automatically each time &kde; starts up.</para>
+
+<para
+>The scan is done by looking through the folders listed in the <guilabel
+>Scan Folders</guilabel
+> list for <literal role="extension"
+>.so</literal
+> files containing plugin code. It examines every such file to find out which <acronym
+>MIME</acronym
+> types the plugin supports. It then creates <acronym
+>MIME</acronym
+> type definitions for &kde; in the user's <filename class="directory"
+> ~/.kde/share/mimelnk</filename
+> folder to make other applications aware of them.</para>
+
+<para
+>The <guilabel
+>Plugins</guilabel
+> page shows you the &Netscape; plugins that &kde; has found, and for each plugin it lists the <acronym
+>MIME</acronym
+> types and the filename suffixes it uses to recognise them.</para>
+
+<para
+>The dialogue box also contains a checkbox <guilabel
+> Enable plugins globally</guilabel
+> which you can use to enable or disable plugins that can be contained in <acronym
+>HTML</acronym
+> pages (these can be considered a security risk).</para>
