 If no plugins are available on the user's system, the "Are you sure you
 want to enable plugins?" prompt is not displayed. This is because the
 prompt is triggered by an "xpcom-category-entry-added" notification but no
 such notification is generated if no plugins are loaded.

 In this case, we should also consider displaying a different message.
