.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. install a big extension (e.g. TBE).
2. The extensions manager opened to download the extension.
3. Close the extensions manager via chrome button when it's downloading.
4. Open it again, you will see it occupies 2 items and not able to uninstall.

Firefox/1.0

I clicked windows' close button while TBE was downloading, then reopened the EM
and saw the extension continued downloading.
Reporter, can you still reproduce this bug with a newer build and with a clean
profile (ie. no extensions?). If not, please resolve this bug as worksforme.
Sorry, I've made a mistake before reporting this bug.
What I want to mention is the extension manager occupies 2 items after the 
installation of 1 extension if it's closed when downloading the extension.
See the screenshot for more information.

I see now. Steps to reproduce:
1. start installing a big extension (e.g. TBE).
* EM opened to download the extension.
2. Close the extensions manager via chrome button while it is downloading the
extension.
3. *Wait for the extension to be downloaded.*
4. Open EM again, there's one extra item for recently downloaded extension.

I hope this is appropriate here:

To remove false theme entry:

1. Edit file extensions.rdf (Use Wordpad in Windows etc. Not Notepad).
2. Remove false entry from beginning of '<RDF: Description' to '</RDF: Description'

Notes: 

1. Each entry contains 2 start headings of '/<RDF: Description'. Remove from first entry that contains min and max versions.
2. Identify false theme entry by looking for - NS1:iconURL="chrome://mozapps/skin/extensions/themeGeneric.png". The themeGeneric.png graphic is the icon displayed by the false theme entry.

A typical complete false theme entry will look like the following ...


  <RDF:Description RDF:about="rdf:#$VL3eK"
                   NS1:id="{a463f10c-3994-11da-9945-000d60ca027b}"
                   NS1:minVersion="1.0+"
                   NS1:maxVersion="1.0+" />
  <RDF:Description RDF:about="http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/themes/pimpzilla_2.9.9/pimpzilla_2.9.9-2.9.9-fx.jar"
                   NS1:name="PimpZilla 2.9.9"
                   NS1:version=" "
                   NS1:iconURL="chrome://mozapps/skin/extensions/themeGeneric.png"
                   NS1:downloadURL="http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/themes/pimpzilla_2.9.9/pimpzilla_2.9.9-2.9.9-fx.jar">
    <NS1:type NC:parseType="Integer">4</NS1:type>
    <NS1:state NC:parseType="Integer">0</NS1:state>
    <NS1:progress NC:parseType="Integer">-34115400</NS1:progress>
  </RDF:Description>
This was fixed by the checkin for bug 319022
