I tried to download silver light 1.0 on firefox 3 beta 4. it said the installation was complete, and for me to restart the browser which I did. It shows silver light as a plugin in use under the add-ons manager for firefox 3 beta 4, however, if I go to a microsoft website using silverlight, it does not show me the application in use, instead, it tells to me download silverlight again, after I have already downloaded it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.i re download it
2.again.
3.again.
Actual Results:  
nothing.. still not working.

Expected Results:  
allowed me to view parts of websites built in silverlight.

Silverlight 2.0 Beta 2 (which is not out right now: Beta 1 is) will fix the problem. Linux users will have to wait on Moonlight.
