I dont know if its just me or its something Im doing wrong, but everytime I install a Mozilla FireFox extension, I can only install one extension. The other extensions I install are paused, so in Download Manager, I cancel the download and then click on retry; the extension seems to be installed just fine at this point, but when I restart the browser, all the extensions I've installed are not in my extensions folder. The only way for an installed extension to work (for me) is if I install one extension, shut down the browser and reopen it, and install another extension, one at a time.

Thats my problem; I cant install several extensions all at once, I have to do one extension at a time. Its a pain in the ass to shut down the browser everytime I install an extension. The same goes installing themes.

Is there something Im doing wrong? I there a patch or something to fix this problem??

Also, when I view a .WMV file on a webpage with FireFox, a message comes up saying, "FireFox has preformed an illegal opperation". Why does this occur? The only videos FireFox can play on a webpage is only MPEG files....

Possibly an issue. I noticed that I could only download one skin at a time, rebooting every time, otherwise they're nmot installed.
I'm back with IE now, but I do miss downloading pdf files rather than opening them online. That's the only thing I miss, though.

same thing happened to me today but this was in a lab. on my computer at home firefox works perfectly. but the one i had there did the same thing yours is doing. i downloaded several extensions and when i restarted they werent showing up. so i just removed it and reinstalled the thing and it worked fine. but i dunno whats up with that. cause the one im using now , works just fine.

It does that. It does it even more in firefox. Firebird did not have that problem as much.

I think there is a way you can right click and save the xpi and install it some other way with firefox. I have to check Im not sure. :)

:lol: Someone's killing their MySQL quota...

Edit: :lol: I was in the wrong tab... what I meant to say was to use the XPI manager in your Firefox directory.
