Moz 0.99 Procedure: 1. Clean your windows temporary directory, see %TEMP% 2. Start Mozilla 3. Visit a web page contains Flash (I use www.now.com.hk, Flash 5) 4. %TEMP%\plugtmp directory will be created 5. Close Mozilla 6. The %TEMP%\plugtmp directory still there Expected result: %TEMP%\plugtmp directory should not exist. IE6 plus Flash does not leave the %TEMP%\plugtmp directory, so it's Mozilla's problem, not Flash.
we remove this properly on Linux, looks like...

on win98 the plugtmp dir is not even generated, I will ploke around on win xp to see if I can dupe it there
This should be removed correctly as long as the browser completes the shutdown process in nsPluginHostImpl::Destroy(): http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/modules/plugin/base/src/nsPluginHostImpl.cpp#3286
It occurs if quick launch is enabled. Is it by design?

Yes, this is by design. Closing the last browser window doesn't qualify as completely exiting with quick launch enabled. Marking WFM.
