Since updating my plugins right-click no longer saves an image - it "cancels".

Last night I updated all my plugins and now I can't save images by right-clicking. I am using Firefox 3.6.8 on a desktop computer running Windows XP legally.

Tried that with no result. I realized I had accidentally (well, carelessly) customized the original default setting and created a new setting to run as default. This may be why it didn't work, although I did eventually get a "plain" version. Setting everything to default, I looked in add-ons anyway and discovered that Real-Player items were still installed. Clicked "disable" on all of those. Right-click still results in no images being saved. The Download box says [name of image.jpg] canceled [website.com]

Knowing Real tries to be a browser itself, should I uninstall it from the entire computer? I don't really NEED it. Befuddled Suze

Do you have the "RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin" extension (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) ?

Be sure not to get confused with the RealPlayer plugin (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) that plays media files. The extension adds some extra features like saving media files.

You can disable/remove the RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension in the RealPlayer Preferences (RealPlayer: Tools > Preferences > Download & Recording)


You can also disable unneeded plugin like Fun Web Products Plugin Stub for 32-bit Windows (can be considered as malware/spyware).

These don't seem to apply to my computer. I am also having (new) trouble playing .flv files. One troubleshoot suggested my Directx was obsolete, so I tried to DL a newer version.

Downloads are coming up as "Canceled" too!

I sure wish I hadn't listened to Firefox page's promise that my Firefox would be better if I updated. It was working fine... >:-(

I've just noticed something odd. (Odder?) When I "disable" all the plugins, the Quick Time and Real plugins come back on their own. I've tried it several times in case I was doing something wrong, but every time I restart Firefox - Poof! there they are again.

Is there some special method of turning them off?

Should I completely uninstall them from my system?

Well! I think I found it!

While I was on vacation a friend added the browser accelerator to a different profile. Somehow this "contaminated" ALL the profiles, even the new Default I created.

How is this possible? Why did it not show up immediately?

BTW, the add-on was called "Download Helper". Not much help, that...
