Given that the extension was on this planet before Firefox 3.6 existed, you'd have to say that v3.6 is the incompatible bit.
I could try one of those forced compatibility things, but there would be little point? I only use Firefox for perhaps 5% or 10% of my browsing, so it really doesn't matter a lot. In fact, come to think of it, I can't think of a single useful feature that's in Firefox 3.5 or 3.6 that isn't already in (say) v2.0 - possibly even v1.0, though that's going a long way back and stretching the memory. Not saying there aren't any, just that I can't think of any off the top of my head. So the only major reason to switch is security, and that only becomes a factor when they stop doing bug-fix releases on the 3.5 branch. I'll just wait.
Yup. But that deletes all the data! I frequently just want to delete the stuff for one particular site that I'm testing code on. The easiest and quickest way to do it is copy the address, close the browser, reopen the browser, paste the page address - <control-insert> <alt-f4> click <shift-insert> <enter> Takes what? Three seconds including a scratch?
Edit: Oh - but that assumes, of course, that I'm not using the browser in question for anything else at the time. This is where Firefox (and lately also Chrome) come in handy: I mildly dislike using them, so I generally don't have much open that will be missed, where closing Opera or Seamonkey often involves a lot of mucking about saving stuff I'm working on.
If someone has VMware2 working in FF 3.6 I would like to know so I can keep working on it. I found some posts about others saying it doesn't while I was looking but for some reason it stopped working in IE8 for a while as well.

Turn off Adblock Plus.
I believe we already discussed how to turn off extension compatibility checking. It's not a big deal.

Oldversion.com probably has it.
Or you could take two seconds to turn off extension compatibility checking.

Was there something wrong with the link I gave you a couple of messages ago?

Works perfect for me (for downloading 3.5).

Well, except that Firefox 3.6 isn't implicitly compatible with extensions from previous versions. So, you'd have to say that your extension is the incompatible bit.

Has anyone tried Pale Moon before?

Funny how they say "optimized this" and "optimized that" and then they say "no native 64-bit client". I know why, but it's not like the browsers aren't plenty fast these days, anyway.

I've been using it for a few days, since it's drop-in on regular Fx. The only difference that I've noticed is that it seems to be using more memory.
Maybe I need a slower computer or some more crapily coded web sites to look at....
