I have a xpi file on my server. When I try to install the file, firefox prompts me to select the browser (firefox.exe) to install it. is it possible to automatically download this xpi file without this prompt. I need this so the end client of my application doesn't have to go through these selection steps.

FYI: Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks that you should update.

  • Java Plug-in 1.5.0_18 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)

You should update the Java plugin to the latest version.
