Ah, no good, then.  TBH, I hadn't tried it, so wasn't aware of this
issue.  I notice too, that you say Ron's suggestion doesn't work.

This prompted me to look at a couple of things.  It seems that you can
create profiles for Iceweasel by calling it with the -ProfileManager
option.  If you create a profile without plugins, or whatever, you can
then call Iceweasel with the -p <profilename> option.  Should work from
a script in ~/bin.

Same caveat as before;  I've not actually tried using different
profiles, so don't know what you can actually (dis|en)able that way.
