"Roll over to try, click to apply" does nothing
I just did the latest Firefox update - no problems - but once again, after the last 2 or 3 or more updates, the "Roll over to try, click to apply" option to try out the new 'personas" does nothing. I remember when they first came out and I could roll over them and see all the cool personas. I never actually chose to apply one but now, as I said, when I rollover, nothing happens. I'd like to still see what they do. If so, maybe I'll eventually actually apply one. Any idea why it doesn't work?

I have this problem too. I suppose I shouldn't bother too much because everything else works fine although the fear is that one day things will get worse... more buggy

You need to update your plugins. It is important to keep them updated due to continuing security fixes and improvements in those plug-ins:
- Adobe Shockwave for Director Netscape plug-in, version 11.0
- Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape "9.3.3"
- Next Generation Java Plug-in 1.6.0_20 for Mozilla browsers
- Check your plugin versions: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/plugincheck/
- Note: plugin check page does not have information on all plugin versions
- Update Shockwave for Director
- NOTE: this is not the same as Shockwave Flash; this installs the Shockwave Player.
- Use Firefox to download and SAVE the installer to your hard drive from the link in the article below (Desktop is a good place so you can find it).
- When the download is complete, exit Firefox (File > Exit)
- locate and double-click in the installer you just downloaded, let the install complete.
- Restart Firefox and check your plugins again.
