For some reason my adblock plus no longer blocks ad's on sites and i do not know why. It just started not working today and i can't figure out why. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall and still nothing. The only thing i can think of is if i uninstall and have it forget all my info.

It is possible that there is a problem with the file(s) that store the extensions registry.

Delete the files extensions.* (e.g. extensions.sqlite, extensions.ini, extensions.cache) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox profile folder to reset the extensions registry.

Won't deleting that profile also delete all the saved passwords? (I hate to think of that problem!)
