Is there away to remove or at least change the HTTP path shown in the browser. Such as changing or removing "pluginclass" etc. or at least "plugin=groupjive" from the path:
Not without custom SEF rewrite rules. Joomla SEF has no idea what to do with those and has no rewrite rules for them so they're left alone. Believe the only way to have what you're wanting is 3rd party SEF extension that rewrites the URL as desired, but that can cause issues if it's too aggressive.

Okay one more question if thats not possible without SEF then is there a file I can edit on the server to change the name of the plugin that the browser shows.
The router.php does exactly that when SEF is enabled, but it needs to be done in a way that can be reversed. So that means it has to be something unique like the plugin element as it's already using. If you used the plugin name for example that could change and doesn't have to be unique, which could result in conflicting SEF URLs. The alternative would be plugin id prefix followed by alias formatted plugin name, but that's really not any better looking than element.
