Welcome to Bleeping Computer TheManInTheCUBE,
I am a bit unsure what you asking for in your post. Are you wanting to download an extension in Firefox? If this is your issue, have a look at this article; Unable to Install Themes or Extensions. --------------------  Join Bleeping Computers Folding@home Team and Help find a cure.

QUOTE(TMacK @ May 12 2007, 10:49 AM)  Welcome to Bleeping Computer TheManInTheCUBE, I am a bit unsure what you asking for in your post. Are you wanting to download an extension in Firefox? Thanks for the greeting. My problem is that I can no longer do SIMPLE downloads of, for example, a photo in a story, or a file. If I do a right click, then do to the 'SAVE as" or "Save Link As " box, nothing happens. So what I can NOT do is download any photo or right clicked-on file (something that has worked properly for years up until now). This post has been edited by TheManInTheCUBE: May 12 2007, 10:38 AM |

Thanx for the additional info.
Hopefully the following Firefox diagnostic articles for this type of problem will help you out. Unable to Save or Download Files. Downloads Not Visible in Download Manager. And because you just did a repair, Downloads Action List is Empty. -------------------- Join Bleeping Computers Folding@home Team and Help find a cure.
