Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Toolkit :: Add-ons Manager, defect)

Description

[vassoura]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
Build Identifier: Mozilla Firefox 1.0.6 Brazilian Portuguese - URL:https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?application=firefox&category=Image%20Browsing&numpg=10&id=843

After installing the autoembedder Firefox didn't work anymore. I reinstalled 
it 3 times (both the Firefox 1.0.6 Brazilian Portuguese and the Firefox 1.0.7 
Portuguese), I erased all the folders after each installation and it still 
didn't work. When I click on Firefox's icon it won't even start.

I think I have to clean the registry before I can use it again, could you tell 
me what to look for and to change?

Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce

Steps to Reproduce:
This is what I did when it worked:
1.Run Firefox
2.Search for the autoembedder extension
3.Install it
4.Firefox crashes and it never works again

Actual Results:  
Firefox stopped working

Expected Results:  
Allow me to view JPEGs automatically, without havig to choose a supported file 
by firefox
