In the example page, the second and third button does not work (the first work fine). I have the same problem on many page (This problem exist in version 1.3 of the browser). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.downloading the page (by opening a page that need java) 2.click on the third button 3. Actual Results: Here, downloading and installing java plugin. Exact effet depends on the page dispalyed. Expected Results: nothing.
WFM: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 on Win2k. However it took a little while before the box (asking for the permission to install the xpi file) shows up: perhaps is the server busy?
OK, launching Mozilla as root resolve the problem. But it's not a solution. I cannot surf on the net as root. An idée ?
You also can't install those plug-ins as non-root using those XPIs... I would have expected a nice error message to that effect, though.
