Plug-in -

A plug-in is a small application that works with your browser to display certain types of web media. For example, some sites have streaming video you can watch, right in your web browser. However, you browser can't display these videos without some sort of assistance, like a plug-in. Once installed, plug-ins will generally run automatically when they're needed.

How do you know which plug-ins you're going to need? Don't worry about it. When you get to a site that requires one, your plug-in will either run automatically or, if you don't have it, there will be instructions for getting it.
