Remove a blocklist addon

Submitted by DADSGETNDOWN on March 31, 2011 - 2:33am

FFP V. 3.6.11, I have this addon called Metastream 3 plugin, it has a red exclamation point and everything about it is grayed out, I want to remove it how do I do this ? It's been disabled in FF because it is on some blockllist and I can do anything via the addon manager, so I would imagine this will be a particular folder to delete.

Firefox 4.0 portable hangs occasionally

Submitted by stephan123 on March 29, 2011 - 4:54am

Hi,

I am running FF portable on Windows XP for 3 years now. I upgraded to FF 4.0 some days ago and experience hangs when showing PDFs or downloading files.

FF just hangs and never comes back, I have to kill the process.

I tried the following to get rid of the problem, without any success.

1. Run FF with an new data-directory
2. Run FF in safe-mode
3. Run FF from a network share
4. Run FF from a local drive

The problem is, that I cannot reproduce this every time.

A quirk

I had a little issue come up when I installed one of the beta (test) versions of Firefox 4. I'm running all apps installed locally in C:\PortableApps on my hard drive and whenever I closed the test/beta version of Firefox, OpenOffice Portable would open. I assumed it was a bug and would be fixed in the Firefox final release. Firefox 3 never did this. When the final came out, I made a copy for obvious reasons, renamed it, leaving it zipped right beside Firefox 3 and the updated 3 to 4 with the final release. After updating 3 to 4, the issue resumed in Firefox 4 final.
