No problem :P

 

Also some out of date addons can be forced to enable using Nightly Tester Tools (you can also use it to change your browser title, and it has a menu item link to your profile folder)

 

Be sure to backup your profile folder if you do this though, since if you force it to enable the wrong addon (old version of Google Toolbar and Tab Mix Plus for example) then Firefox will crash on startup. Works fine for most little addons though.

That means it probably wouldn't work on my RedShift theme. :P

 

And I know this is going to be pretty much off topic so I appologize. But I noticed I have a couple wierd "characters" in my member title it now says "ºo0The Invalid Sprite Killer0oº" The first two I have never seen before and I don't even know what symbol those are. I've only noticed them since installing FF3 (which is why this kind of relates to the topic still)

There's a simpler way:

 

* Type about:config into Firefox's address bar and click the "I'll be careful, I promise!" button.

* Right-click anywhere. Choose New>Boolean. Make the name of your new config value extensions.checkCompatibility and set it to false.

* Make another new boolean pair called extensions.checkUpdateSecurity and set the value to false.

* Restart Firefox.

 

 

Although this doesn't work with everything.

God! FF3 is so much better!! Runs smoother than 2 and doesn't use up nearly as much resources. I'm really happy with this.

As long as you back up your profile folder it won't cause any harm to try. If you don't back it up then it could be hard to disable the addon/theme that is crashing Firefox.

 

 

I don't see any weird/invalid characters in your title. Have you tried disabling all your addons one by one to find out if one of them is causing it?

True, this addon has a nice link to your profile folder also though, and it's generally a good idea to back up your Firefox profile before enabling outdated addons for it. Most people find it a pain to find it manually.

Yeah, I'm working on it. It's not easy, I'm still learning this stuff.
