SOLVED : $ sudo find / -name nppdf.so to lists these locations /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/nppdf.so /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/nppdf.so /root/.mozilla/plugins/nppdf.so

these commands get rid of them $ sudo rm /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/nppdf.so $ sudo rm /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/nppdf.so $ sudo rm /root/.mozilla/plugins/nppdf.so
