Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox
There are several reasons to do this - first and foremost for 32-bit plugin compatibility and without using the quirky nspluginwrapper, and there are still some other rough edges including some java issues. 32-bit version also uses less memory .
Even the M$ includes 32-bit IE in their "x64" systems ;)
