Whenever I open Firefox I receive a pop-up window with the title of "Share Button for Pinterest". Inside the box it has the message:

InternalError: bad script XDR magic number 728

That sounds like this extension:

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/pinterest-pin-button/

A couple updates were released on Dec. 24th. Could you check whether you have version 43.3.1? You can do that on the Add-ons page. Either:

  • Ctrl+Shift+a
  • "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons

In the left column, click Extensions. Then find that extension on the right side and if you don't see the version number, click the "More" link below the title to access the details page.

If it's not the latest version, click the "gear" button above the description and click "Check for Updates" to see whether that fetches it.

Any improvement?


Do you find that extension more useful than the official one published by Pinterest here: https://about.pinterest.com/en/browser-button

Thank you so much. I didn't have that Add-on. Once I added it, my Firefox upgraded from 42.0 to 43.0.3 and I no longer get the error.

Now, if I could just figure out how to stop Windows 10 from performing auto-updates. That's what started the problems in the first place. It screwed up my email program too.
