you should not have removed firefox 1.5. the howto linked to in midnightriderz reply relies on debian etch having firefox 1.5 installed and existing plugins working.
-edit- i would venture to say that it is possible that if u used apt-get remove firefox to remove firefox 1.5, then very likely apt also removed all installed plugins

Try checking if you still have the plugins in:
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
if so just symlink to them in your firefox2.0 plugin directory
Better yet use the unstable repo and install Iceweasel.Debian Sid LXDE Kernel liquorix CPU Pentium IV 2.80GHz GeForce 9400 GT
