Disabling the Firefox Delay Timer

Have you ever wanted to disable the little annoying count down that Firefox gives you when you try to install a plug-in. Turns our the original porpoise of that timer was to prevent novice users from installing random plug-ins without realizing they are doing so.  If you are reading this you are probably not a novice and understand what plug-ins are and do in Firefox. So without further ado in order to disable this annoyance:

1. Pull up a new tab (ctrl+t)

2. Browse to: about:config

3. Find and set value for: security.dialog_enable_delay to 0 (numeric value 0 not the letter o)
