I have tried on several computers to download Screen Grab with Mozilla. I have it on an older laptop and it works great....but when I try to download on newer ones I get a message that it won't work with newer versions of Mozilla. I really like using it. Are there newer versions? Any other plug-ins that do the same thing?

Are you talking about this add-on:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/screengrab/

It does work with Firefox 3.0 - 4.0.

I noticed that it worked with certain pages, but not with others, especially after the latest Firefox 5.X.X "update." I'd actually had to ferret out why it wasn't working originally, by doing some in-depth searches to find the first "bug-fix" for it and also for the Download Helper which had the "triangle" missing from the icon. Seems Firefox is putting "updates" ahead of pre-planning their updates to accommodate older plugins and add-ons, first, making them unusable until a bug-fix comes along later. Hoping this comment makes sense. I'm not a computer genius, but I did stay at a Holiday-Inn-Express one night.
