Show and disable plugins in Chrome

Plugins are not the same as add-ons. There's a way to bring up your plugins in the settings menu, but it's deeply nested. This is easier:
In the URL bar type: chrome://plugins
You would be suprised what's in there. PaperPort installed several PDF related plugins I don't need in Chrome, iTunes installed an "Application Detector" like the one in Firefox (Apple, WHY do I need an iTunes plugin in my browser?), my DVD slide show app added a plugin. I disabled them all.
