How to force ff into reporting adobe shockwave flash plugin is installed?

I have a Plugin that requires Shockwave to be installed yet it doesn't use it, As Adobe is such a security risk I do not want it installed but I cannot use this plugin without it. How can I force FF to report Shockwave as being installed when it is not?

Yes, just as stated in topic title Not director. In the plugins it is only called "Shockwave Flash"

So the Adobe Flash Player then.

Yes I know, Adobe likes to confuse us.

Yes they do but it really does not matter what the plugin is I guess. Whatever the solution is it should work for any plugin or even for a non-existent one.

I think we need an extension for a plugin impostor. :D
