Finally, I got it!!! :-) The add-on that I'm using is Web Slide Show. Download link is: https://addons.mozilla.org/pt-br/firefox/addon/web-slide-show/

In touch with the add-on developer, I found that it should be used the following command line to call the add-on:

C:\Program Files (x86)>start firefox.exe http://www.uol.com.br?webslideshow-autostart
