Description

[cjh-70]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3

I installed the AdBlock extension, then unintalled it using the uninstaller
(deinstaller) in the program. I didn't use the uninstaller in the extension
manager window. Now, can't open the extension manager or manage my other
extensions. I've redownloaded and reinstalled Firefox 1.0.3 four times and the
problem still exists. I'd like to try the "new profile option," but I can't find
the Profile Manager.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.install AdBlock
2.uninstall using the program's uninstaller.
3.

Actual Results:  
Extension manager won't open.

Expected Results:  
Uninstalled AdBlock without causing any other problems.

I only use the default theme, which is the only one I have installed.

The adblock uninstaller is buggy and breaks Firefox, you shouldn't use it. To
get the profile manager, follow the steps at:

You can also use some of the support resources available at:

http://www.mozilla.org/support/firefox/

like IRC, or the forums.
