It sounds scarier than it is. Mozilla will implement a sandbox in firefox 
for the Adobe DRM plugin to run in. This sandbox is completely open 
source. The DRM plugin is not part of firefox. You have to install it the 
same way you install the flash plugin.

So if you don’t want to use the DRM plugin, then don’t install it.

Shade and sweet water!
