Unknown folders in the firefox extensions folder

more options

i have a lot of unknown folders in the firefox extensions folder (Profiles/<Name>/extensions) [IMG]http://i54.tinypic.com/humv0p.jpg/IMG are these useful .. i recently performed a data recovery on my hard disk so its possible that these folders were somewhere else and have been placed here after the recovery (though i dont remember them being anywhere in my files before) .. would it be safe to delete them without affecting my addons or extension .. i hope its not a bug thats tracking me or something .. Thanks

None of those folders belong in any Firefox folder, that's all Microsoft stuff.

As far as using Firefox is concerned, I can't see any reason not to delete those folders.
