One day firefox simply "forgot" the add-ons it had installed (Adblock, session manager, google translate) And when I try to download them back from the mozilla website, nothing happens. Although if I open the installation link in another tab, it works. Any ideas on what's happening?

Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause Firefox issues. Disable All of them.
