In order to debug a browser plugin with Visual Studio 2008, oftentimes it is necessary to force the browser to run in single-process mode. Following are methods to force single-process mode in popular browsers:
Chrome/Chromium: use the –single-process command line switch.
Firefox: set dom.ipc.plugins.enabled in about:config to false.
Internet Explorer: in the system registry, under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main, add “TabProcGrowth” as a DWORD value and set to zero (0).
