yes, we use this method too, but with a mix. first, try to remove the extensions.ini , extensions.cache and compreg.dat from firefox' user profile folder. an reload firefox to let it re-register the extensions. i think this should help. if not, i suggest... second, what we actually use is a mix. we install globally some extension but also, we have a Sandbox user in which we install and configure firefox (and other applications) as we like and then we copy the user's specific application configuration files (.mozzila , .openoffice ... ) to all other users in the system and change ownership very easy :-) i can send you the copy script if you like this method. <div>On 7/17/07, Ray Garza <<a href="mailto:ray@mission.lib.tx.us">ray@mission.lib.tx.us </a>> wrote:<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">On Monday 16 July 2007 02:18:04 pm Jonathan White wrote: > On Mon, 2007-07-16 at 14:00 -0500, Ray Garza wrote: > > I have a Firefox addon (menu editor) that I want to add to all users, > > anyone know how to do that? > > > > Ray > > I've found the articles listed on this page: > <a href="http://www.mozillazine.org/talkback.html?article=21054">http://www.mozillazine.org/talkback.html?article=21054</a> > very helpful in getting Firefox addons installed globally on fresh FF > installs.

Has anyone tried this command before?
