Try creating symlinks of the files from /usr/local/lib/browser_plugins
to /usr/local/lib/firefox3/plugins
Normally this should not be necessary in recent firefox3 versions but YMMV

Also try running firefox3 from the terminal and see if it complains
about plugins that cannot be loaded because of errors (missing files or
whatever)
