TrueSuite Plugin Removal

My laptop came with a fingerprint reader and TrueSuite from Authentec which has installed a plugin in firefox. I use the software for basic windows authentication as a convenience but haven't seen fit to use it with my browser, and it appears to be causing some issues that lead me to believe the best thing to do would be remove the plugin from firefox if it's possible. Only, I'm not sure how to go about doing this because it doesn't appear to be an option in TrueSuite.

The problem is in combination with an add-on I use regularly called InstantFox. Upon using a defined shortcut key in my address bar, such as typing "g " to start a google search, I will see an odd box with browser client information (http://prntscr.com/4ghkhw). This problem was resolved temporarily in an older version of firefox by disabling the plugin.

However in newer versions of firefox there's a known issue (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1005795) where this now causes the address bar has annoyingly indented text. But if that was the worst, I'd be fine. In combination with the InstantFox add-on when I search for "g " it also turns the address bar black (http://prntscr.com/4ghltw) which is almost as bad as seeing the prior mentioned text behind the address in the address. Actually I'm not sure which is more discouraging, but it makes it really hard to make out what's in the address bar.

In each of these cases the problem is persistent, they don't go away after I navigate to another page or even another tab. They only go away when the browser closes. My OCD is set off badly enough to discourage me from using the utility that has improved my workflow so much....

Is there not a way from firefox to manually remove an installed plugin? Are there any other suggestions/ideas out there of how I could resolve the issue? Maybe an alternative freeware to handle the windows authentication via fingerprint?
