How can I access the add-ons from my earlier version of Firefox?
Firefox disappeared from my computer after a malware attack. Unfortunartely, my add-ons and stuff have also disappeared. I've tried to re-install my original Firefox4, but without success. Firefox 9.01 has been installed and I cannot access my original installed add-ons, plug-ins and extensions. Can anybody help please. in English

As far as i understand the plugins are installed in the 'plugins' directory (look for this inside the directory where you installed the Firefox). In Windows it should be something like 'C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\Plugins'. If plugins are there then this directory should NOT BE empty
You can also cross check whether the plugins are there are not via Firefox itself (Tools -> Add-ons -> Plugins) See if this lists out anything or not.
Most probably what happened is that when the new version of the Firefox was installed it overwrote that 'plugins' directory and hence now is not able to find them.
Have a look at these website also:- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Move_plugins_to_another_location_-_Firefox http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installation_directory
