Sounds to me like this is with an older version of the DLL, as a lot of newer-version usage is in the general public and we don't see crashes with those.

Release Management, can we try to contact Baidu Antivirus and ask them if we should block the 3.4.2.x and older versions?

Email sent to several Baidu.com addresses from bugzilla - hope one of them is the person to start this conversation with.

Closing old bugs in the Plugins component. We aren't going to track issues in 3rd-party plugins in the Mozilla bug tracker. In addition, support for NPAPI plugins will be removed at the end of this year; for more details see the post at https://blog.mozilla.org/futurereleases/2015/10/08/npapi-plugins-in-firefox/

If there is a serious bug in Firefox, it needs to be filed in the "Core" product, "Plug-Ins" component.
