pgAdmin III Plugins Help

From

Hello,
 
I have a working installation of PostgreSQL 8.4 on Windows Vista computer 1.  Of course, during that installation pgAdmin III was installed and it has the Plugin for running the psql command line.
 
I have installed only pgAdmin III 1.8.4 on Windows Vista computer 2 with NO PostgreSQL installation, so I can administer the db that is on Computer 1 from Computer 2.  This works fine.  I can make the connection to the server and do anything I'd like - except for running scripts via the psql command line.
 
In the standalone pgAdmin III installation on Computer 2 there is no icon for Plugins, and no Plugins option in the menu.  I have copied the plugins.ini file from the Computer 1 installation and placed that in the pgAdmin directory, but the standalone pgAdmin on Computer 2 still does not recognize it and has no Plugins. 
 
How can I install the psql Plugin on a standalone version of pgAdmin III so I can run scripts on a remote computer hosting PostgreSQL?
 
Thanks.
 
Joe

The Plugin menu is only available in pgAdmin 1.10. So, uninstall 1.8.4 and
install 1.10.
