I'm behind a corporate firewall that block plugin downloads. I can however copy them from another machine that does have access.

How can I download plugins as a separate download to copy to another machine and install there?

I would suggest you not mess with it as its corporate and the firewall is there to prevent things from happening. I know it may be strict on you but I suggest not doing it as it would cause us both trouble one day.

I copied the contents of my entire profile folder from one machine to the other.

Probably could have copied certain files but couldn't be bother working out which ones.

FF really should allow plugins to be saved for later installation.
