Do you publish reasons for blocking flash or java add-ins?
I noticed inhttps://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/add-ons-cause-issues-are-on-blocklist#w_what-does-the-blocklist-do you publish a pretty succinct explanation of your blocklist and what it does. I also noticed that neither this nor the blocklist tells us WHY a particular plugin from running, other than offering generic messages that the plugin could be "vulerable" or known to be unstable. Do your developers have a particular criteria they apply for determining whether a particular plugin should be on the block list. If so can we know what that criteria is? The reason I ask is that I work in a managed environment and we try to make sure that our software runs as flawlessly as possible. If a plugin is being blocked for a valid reason, it would be good to know what that reason is so that we can shore up the problem.

(First off, please update your Firefox. 32 is quite out of date and insecure)
Yes, we block Java and Flash because of publicly released vulnerabilities. You can view the list at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/blocked/
