Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Other Applications :: DOM Inspector, defect)

Description

[oedoc]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; fr; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722 Firefox/3.6.8
Build Identifier: version 2.0.7

After installing DOM Inspector v2.0.7, I noticed that CoolPreview's window wouldn't close, and that I could not close its options window. Killed FF3.6.8 and restarted. No more plugin add-on icons or menu entries nor toolbar icons; yet they all show as active and installed on the add-on manager window. Closing and restarting was of no help.

Reinstalling v2.0.6 caused everything to fold back into expected, usual behaviour. More precisely, uninstalling v2.0.7 restored everything, and reinstalling v2.0.6 did not break.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Accept update from Update manager to v2.0.7
2. Restart Firefox
3. When stuck, restart again
Actual Results:  
No more add-on(20+ of them) was available through the UI. No keyboard shortcut would work. Yte they all show normally in the add-on manager.

Expected Results:  
DI should not interfere with other add-ons and provide as much functionaity as v2.0.6.

Theme is default, WinXP is Pro 32 bit SP3 with non-admin privileges. FF version is 3.6.8.
