WORKSFORME - Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9pre) Gecko/2008053003 Minefield/3.0pre


I am able to click on the Click to Install link, at which time I am prompted Opening Silverlight.exe, and I can Save File or Cancel.  I chose to Save File, and put it on my desktop.  I run the executable, and I am able to successfully install the plugin.  I am prompted to restart Minefield, which I do.  Tools > Add-Ons > Plugins Tab shows Silverlight Plug-In 1.0.30401.0.  I can verify that silverlight is working via a test at http://www.bubblemark.com/wpfe.htm that runs as expected.

Chandru: any relevant crashes in about:crashes ?

WFM as per comment 1.

Comment 3 is a new bug, please file as such, but first take a look at bug 432371 as it might be a dupe.
