1. I did a clean install of Firefox 7.0b6 in Windows 7. It had a fresh profile. 2. I then downloaded and installed a variety of programs that bundle Firefox add-ons: * Skype - http://skype.com * Weatherbug - http://weatherbug.com * Free FLV player for Windows - http://applian.com/flvplayer/ * Advanced SystemCare - http://www.iobit.com/advancedsystemcareper.html * PDFCreator - http://www.pdfforge.org/pdfcreator * Defraggler - http://www.piriform.com/defraggler/download 3. After restarting Firefox 7 I had a lot of third party add-ons (some were disabled because they weren't compatible). 4. I updated Firefox 7 to Firefox 8. During the update process my add-ons were checked and none of them were identified as third party. All were checked to keep and to be active (some were deactivated because they weren't compatible) 5. Firefox 8 still has a lot of third party add-ons. I have the Program directory and the profile zipped up. I can upload them if they'd be helpful.

Can you attach a copy of extensions.sqlite from your profile.

nom'ing for tracking Fx8 -- we should make sure this isn't broken before advertising it as a Firefox 8 feature.

I updated my Ubuntu VM from Fx 7 to 8 and the Ubuntu add-on was flagged as third party on upgrade.

Thanks for the updates, the problems here are all because the third party add-ons are getting installed to the profile or application directory, I'm trying to work out whether it's possible to solve this problem.

As mentioned by Dave over on bug 693459 he wants to have it also tracked for Aurora.

If all else fails, can we ship a list of extensions that we know are being installed by third parties even though they look from the point of view of the add-on management code like extensions the user has installed?

I'm splitting this up so this bug covers third-party add-ons in the application folder and bug 694575 covers those in the profile folder.

This makes the upgrade UI class any non-themes in the application directory as third party installs and updates the testcase to match. Distribution add-ons remain as they were.

Comment on attachment 567775 [details] [diff] [review] patch rev 1 I think we really want this for completeness in the feature. Yes, it's late. Without this change, we're far less effective when we help users disable unwanted add-ons.

If it's not approved for Aurora, those who will update from 3.6 to 9 won't have this change.
