Try resetting the Extension Manager. With Firefox closed, delete the following files in your profile folder: extensions.cache extensions.ini extensions.rdf and compatibility.ini They'll be re-created when you open Firefox.


Making sure Firefox closed: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Kill_application Profile location: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder You may need to show hidden files to locate your profile (W2K & WinXP): http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/us.../hiddenfiles.mspx


If that doesn't solve your problem see this: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions_-_Firefox#Unexpected_installation_error_-203
