Extensions in Firefox are disabled after updating FF 1.0.1 to FF 1.0.2. I used
the update manager to update my FF 1.0.1 to FF 1.0.2. The downloading and
installing where okay, but after starting the new version of Firefox I received
the message "All old extensions you have installed are disabled" and I needed to
install them again. See also my reproduced forumtopic at Mozbrowser.nl
(http://www.mozbrowser.nl/forum/viewtopic.php?p=24634#24634)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Searched for new updates with the update manager (FF 1.0.2 was released)
2.Downloaded the update
3.Installed the update (closed the "old" version of FF first)
4.Started the new version of FF (1.0.2) 

Actual Results:  
I received the message "All old extensions you have installed are disabled" and
had to install them again.

Expected Results:  
The extensions should remain intact.

I also had the same problem with my other computer. The extensions used in this
Firefox are:

SpoofStick 1.05
Adblock 0.5 d2 nightly 39
Tabbrowser preferences 1.2.2
Sage 1.3.1

This also happens from 1.02 to 1.03

Some extensions say "Not compatible with 1.03" and the rest are seemingly enabled.

If you re-download the SAME VERSION of the extension, it magically becomes
available again..
