Looking at the Error Console, it says: Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsISafeOutputStream.finish]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: file:///C:/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox%203%20Beta%202/components/nsExtensionManager.js :: closeSafeFileOutputStream :: line 508" data: no] Source File: file:///C:/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox%203%20Beta%202/components/nsExtensionManager.js Line: 508 There are also similar errors. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Attempt to install an extension such as Session Manager or Prism for Firefox. Actual Results: I get an error. Expected Results: The add-on should be installed succesfully. Add-ons that have been successfully installed: Adblock Plus 0.7.5.4 Java Console 6.0.05 Nightly Tester Tools 2.0.2 Web Developer 1.1.6 Build ID: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008051206 Firefox/3.0 ID:2008051206

An additional error found in my console is this, I'm not sure it is related: Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004003 (NS_ERROR_INVALID_POINTER) [nsIDOMHTMLTableSectionElement.appendChild]" nsresult: "0x80004003 (NS_ERROR_INVALID_POINTER)" location: "JS frame :: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/js/sorttable.js :: anonymous :: line 50" data: no] Source File: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/js/sorttable.js Line: 50
