I am having a myriad of problems with Firefox lately.

Just recently, my DownloadHelper add-on won't download, It allows me to "save" my choice, and it gives me a number next to the spinning icon, but it won't actually download the video.

hello, please try the beta version of the extension: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/video-downloadhelper-5/nFBCjyLHg8c

Thank you, it works again.

Well, it worked for exactly one day before disappearing from my Firefox and not reappearing no matter HOW many times I reinstall it.
