Safari will display a new web page that lists all of the Safari plug-ins currently on your system. Safari groups plug-ins by the file that contains the small programs. You may see various Java Applet plug-ins or a QuickTime plug-in.

Drag the file to another location on your Mac to disable it but save it for later. Create a folder called Disabled Plug-ins to hold these files. If you change your mind later and want to reinstall the plug-in, drag it back to its original location.
