When I installed Firefox 4 it warned me that Microsoft .NET Framework Assistant was not compatible and disabled it. How ever I can not find a way to remove it from the list of extensions. It wants to re-enable itself.

I've gone through all of the instructions provided on Mozilla Support to remove this Microsoft .NET Framework Assistant 0.0.0 extension, but nothing works. When I did a search of my hard disk, I can't even find any traces of it on my computer yet it still shows up on the extensions list of Firefox 4. This concerns me greatly as it has tried to re-enable itself a couple of times. I need to find out where it's being listed and recorded in Firefox 4 so that I can get rid of it once and for all. How do I go about doing that?

Additional information: I ran across this same problem once before when I upgrade to Firefox 3.x with one of the add-ons, but I can't remember how I was able to resolve it, if I ever did. The Firefox programmers should put in the option that when an upgrade to Firefox fines an incompatible add-on that it can be either updated to one that is compatible or it can be removed before the Firefox upgrade proceeds. I consider this to be a serious bug in Firefox.
