Just a little tip I learned recently but if you are an avid firefox user and you want to debug Silverlight 4 applications in the firefox browser, then here are a few steps you need to take to make that happen, since it doesn't work right out of the gate.
Step 1In firefox, at the address bar type "about:config" without the quotes. If done correctly you will see a little warning. Step 2Accept the warning. Tell it you will be careful, you promise. Step 3In the filter field, type "dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npctrl.dll" and you should see only 1 entry. Step 4Change the value from "true" to "false". You can do this by just double-clicking the entry. Step 5Restart the browser and you should be good to go.

Of course you could ignore all that and manually attach the visual studio debugger to "plugin-container.exe" but that would be painful and the above way is much easier.
