This plugin used to install without problems in Netscape 4.x, but it doesn't recognize Mozilla. Somebody wrote a workaround that works for Mozilla, but you need to install first in Netscape 4.x and then copy some files to the Mozilla plugins directory. Check this URL for instructions: http://courses.chem.psu.edu/chem38/technical/technical-instalations.html Can you check if this problem can be solved and this plugin can be directly installed in Mozilla? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to install Chime 2. It doesn't recognize Mozilla and it doesn't install. 3. Actual Results: It didn't install. But following the suggested workaround worked. Expected Results: Check what works in Netscape 4.x and doesn't in Mozilla, and fix it.

After reading the information on the referenced page, they are aware of their installation issue and stated that they are working on resolving their install issues. Since the plug-in wrks after the movement of the files, then there isn't much we can do here. The vendor needs to modify their install script.
