How do I Install default popup exceptions when installing Firefox
I have some software that installs Firefox. I would like to include some default exceptions for the popup blocker on a new install. How can I do this?
I know the exceptions are stored in this file: permissions.sqlite. I can add and remove exceptions from this db file, but this file does not exist until the user first starts up Firefox for the first time on a new install.
I tried putting permissions.sqlite in the following locations to try and use it as a template without any luck. C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\profile
I would be very grateful for any help!!!
Cheers

Creating the default\profile folder and placing the file(s) in this folder should work to initialize a new profile.
If you want to initialize prefs then you need to create a defaults\preferences folder.
Yea I followed that link and even though it says that as of version 21 permissions.sqlite should go into C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\profile NOT \browser\defaults\profile - it doesn't work. BUT if I put permissions.sqlite into \browser\defaults\profile... it works (version 22).
BTW I spent hours determining that since the link above seems to be only easy place to find for current information on doing this. However, I did find that the author of that site created a Firefox add-on called CCK which has a nice little GUI wizard that generates all of these settings for you. I only walked through the wizard, I never actually used it when deploying Firefox since permissions.sqlite was the last thing I had to figure out.
