I had to reinstall extentions again as well because many were not compatible with 1.5.

I get a bar at the top that says, "Software installation is currently disabled. Click edit options... to enable it and try again." I cannot seem to find the right option to correct to enable it again. Any Firefox pros have any ideas. I am using Windows XP Home Edition SP2. Peace out... McX [Link] |

| McX Maxstretch.com 135 Posts 1/05 | Posted - Jan 3 2006 : 2:05AM Unfortunately, this problem is different. I cannot download extensions because of the above issue. Bill had problems actually running/executing an extension. Anyone else have a suggestion??? Peace out... McX [Link] |
| McX Maxstretch.com 135 Posts 1/05 | Posted - Jan 3 2006 : 2:51AM I downloaded the extension using IE to the Mozilla Firefox Extensions folder. When I launched Firefox it said a new extension was detected and did I wish to install it. Clicking yes finished the process. Still not certain why I cannot download the extensions using FF, but this is a satisfactory workaround. Peace out... McX [Link] |

I think it is on by default with only the official Mozilla update sites as exceptions. Jacco [Link] |
