User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.11) Gecko/2009060308 Ubuntu/9.04 (jaunty) Firefox/3.0.11

UBUNTU 9.04 - GNOME
FIREFOX 3.0.11  (new profile, no other add-ons)
ADBLOCK PLUS 1.0.2


Using FIREFOX : TOOLS : ADD-ONS : SEARCH BOX : ADBLOCK PLUS ; the search responds "Firefox couldn't retrieve add-ons".  Searching on "ADBLOCK" yields the same result, but searching on "BLOCK" provides results.  I checked the bug list and did not notice this issue.

By searching on BLOCK, I can install and have no problems.  I can use the BROWSE ALL ADD-ONS that takes me to addons.mozilla.org and have no problems installing from there either.

This is only an issue because I am doing a special screen-recording for a specific site and this prevents me from demonstrating the shortest method.

Confirming. I suspect collections-related memory problems.
