I use Firefox with a VPN from F5 Networks.
Monday morning the installation of F5 Networks Host Plugin 6031.2009.1010.0304 was required. With some difficulties I was able to get it installed on FF 3.5.8.
But after having installed FF 3.6 yesterday, the installation of the plugin is refused due to incompatibility with FF 3.6.
So I have to use MS Internet Explorer.
Any ideas how to proceed?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Login to VPN
2.Add on windows pops up. Confirming.
3.Error message occurs
Actual Results:  
MSG-Box (German)

Please take this up with the author of the plug in. Only they can make it compatible. If they discover issues they can raise bugs themselves on the specific issues they may encounter getting it to work.

Robert, I agree and normally I'd processed that way. But in this case the plugin worked with FF 3.5.8 and stopped working with 3.6. So there are changes the authors probably / possibly could not have been aware of.
Nevertheless I will inform them.
