Detect browser add-ons list

Hi,
one small question.
is possible to detect brower addons list using as3 ?

I do not think that's possible, but I suspect you can use Javascript to do it and send that information to the SWF via FlashVars.

Noscript does not appear in my add-ons list in firefox 18

I know the Java plugin is disabled in FF 18 but I tried to install the Noscript add-0n. It says it is installed but after I restart FF, Noscript does not appear in my add-ons list. Windows XP

Thanks ideato but that's the problem. Noscript is not in the extensions list. I use the terms "add-ons list" and "extensions list" interchangeably. The author of Noscript advises me that the extensions/add-ons list manager must be corrupted.

Flash player and kaspersky browser add-ons

Hallo,
I use Internet Explorer 9 (32 bit) on windows 7 (64 bit) with Adobe flash player (version 11,5,502,135 installed) and also the following kaspersky browser add-ons from software "kaspersky internet security 2013":
Name Content Blocker Plugin
Name Virtual Keyboard Plugin
Name Safe Money Plugin
Name URL Advisor Plugin
Name Links untersuchen
Some time - once per month - I like to go to cinema and therefor I use cineplex online ticket booking system, which is based on adobe flash player. But ever I want to reserve online a cinema ticket, I got an error message in browser from some add-on, probable from flash player add-on "Shockwave Flash Object" by Adobe Systems Incorporated, and cannot use the web page to reserve a ticket in online ticket system of CINEPLEX: https://booking.cineplex.de/TicketBoxXNGFrontend/booking_ng.jsp?perf_i d=1E871000023VYZJHTG&site_id=31 The web page from booking.cineplex is since many years the same, but flash player is often updated and kaspersky lab add-ons are very young.
Could anybody confirm problems between flash player add-on and the kaspersky lab add-ons, because if I deactivate all kaspersky add-ons, there are no problems to use the webpage from CINEPLEX and their online ticket system based on flash player. Support of Kaspersky Lab denies any problems with their software regarding this issue, but I don't believe, that they had tested it with the booking.cineplex site.
Regards

Hi Chris,
thank your for the hint. But this site is already on whitelist in all moduls of kaspersky. I assume the error comes not from possible blocking content of the web site, but from blocking something functions from flash player "Shockwave Flash Object" add-on, but I could not exactly determine this. Because this problem is difficulty to delimit, I use IE 9 only without Kaspersky add-ons, otherwise I get angry each time, if the access to cinema portal site does not work.
Perhaps someone else has an idea.

After installing FF 5.0 I am receiving a list of incompatible Add-Ons. I go into 'Extensions' and click to remove them, exit FF and lauch FF again, the same incompatible add-ons list appears. Is there a way to permanently remove the old Add-ons?

After installing FF 5.0 I am receiving a list of incompatible Add-Ons. I go into 'Extensions' and click to remove them, exit FF and lauch FF again, the same incompatible add-ons list appears. Is there a way to permanently remove the old Add-ons?

Thanks but I don't think this will help. Like I said, all of my add-ons were working fine and compatible until after running a previous version of FF. I am sure they are still compatible, but they are not working at all.
I even checked my profile folder and all of the extensions' data is all still there but FF5 is just not reading it correctly. (like adblock plus... I see the folder for it but FF5 doesn't have it on the add-on manager page when I run FF5)

How do I disable browser add-ons?

Every time I get on Facebook, I get all kinds of ads pop up all over my news feed. After searching Facebook's Help section, it says that I need to disable browser add-ons. How do I do that?

Duplicate entries in Add-Ons list? (Firefox 17 on Windows 8)

I'm not sure why, but I seem to have duplicate entries in the Firefox Add-Ons list.
They are:
Intel Identity Protection Technology 2.1.42.0
Intel Identity Protection Technology 2.1.42.0
NVIDIA 3D Vision 7.17.13.529
NVIDIA 3D Vision 7.17.13.529
Software: FF Version 17.0.1 on Windows 8 (Windows Updates are current).
Hardware: Dell XPS 8500 Desktop, Intel® Core™ i7-3770 3.4 GHz with 1 GB NVIDIA GeForce GT 620 Graphics

I was having another issue where I could not see anything in the list of Extensions, although I knew there were many.
I unlinked this device from sync and did a reset, then re-synced.
Things seem to be working now.

Newly installed Thunderbird. When browsing the add ons listing it completely crashes. No add ons installed yet. No crash report comes up.

In the Add-ons Manager I click on 'see all' and it crashes thunderbird. Completely shuts it down to desktop. No crash report, just blink and its gone. No add-ons installed yet.

Those "vanishing acts" are one of the hardest things to work out.
Can you open this page when you click.
https://addons.mozilla.org/thunderbird/extensions/?sort=hotness
and this
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/extensions/?sort=hotness
both of those are the link that opens in Thunderbird when you click show all, one without the detected locale.
Assuming you have had your operating system installed for some time (XP is old) please run the disk cleanup tool on the start menu in Accessories\system tools. as the issue may be related to an over full temp folder or other disk issue.

Why is Bookmark Favicon Changer missing from the add-ons list?

The Bookmark Favicon Changer add-on is currently installed on my browser [ESR 31.2.0] and it seems to work, although imperfectly. Yet the add-on pages (https://addons.mozilla.org/) do not list it at all, as far as I can see. What's going on?

The developer was flaunting the rules that AMO operates under. AMO cut him some slack, and provided a month warning about uploading an updated version. '''Then''' that extension was downgraded, and after warning the developer again and not getting a response from the developer Mozilla disabled the listing for that extension. All he had to do was to upload a new "fixed" version to have that extension enabled again.
Fair or unfair, the rules are the rules. Violate the rules and you're liable to be tossed out. ''I use 6 different extensions that aren't hosted at AMO; two were pulled from AMO years ago due to "new rules" similar to what this developer didn't like and the other 4 were never hosted at AMO for one reason of another.'' And at least Mozilla doesn't do like some of the App stores and restrict add-ons to being installed '''only''' from the Mozilla Add-ons website or Market Place as will soon be known. Add-on developers still have the choice to host add-ons on their own website, and users still have the choice to install add-ons from any website that they want to.
As far as "notification" goes - why would Mozilla want to do that? Mozilla didn't like a "call" the developer was using, so why should Mozilla contact users? And how would Mozilla even go about contacting users? There's no "registry" of users for each extension that is kept by Mozilla, and IMO keeping track users like that would violate each users privacy. Who wants to be tracked in that manner?

In my Add-ons list I see Java Console with every version from 6.0.03 to 6.0.21. Why so many?

When FireFox notifies me to update an add-on I usually do as I am told. Java Console comes up with updates so I update it. With other add-ons the item in the add-on list is changed giving its version number but with Java Console the list simply grows with yet another Java Console listed.
It's not a problem, I suppose, but I wonder why it works this way and if it should.

You can uninstall (remove) the Java Console extensions and disable the Java Quick Starter extension, you do not need them to run Java applets.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Java#Multiple_Java_Console_extensions
Disable the Java Quick Starter extension: Tools -> Add-ons -> Extensions
* Control Panel -> Java -> Advanced tab -> Miscellaneous -> Java Quick Starter (disable)

I can't get the roboform lite to clear from the add ons list and it still says it's going to be uninstalled when I restart Firefox

fix it

Its known issue, see;
* https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=713014
please open a bugzilla account and add your email in cc list if you want to follow the bug?
Someone having the problem, but when he upgrade Java runtime, his poblem was fixed, make sure your JRE has been up to date?
Also maybe this bug is fixed in nightly?

I'm asked to allow add-ons install after every reboot (all the add-ons list, one by one)

Every time I reboot, when I lauch Firefox, I get one tab for each "installed" extension, asking to "allow the install" of the extension.
Now that I'm thinking about it, the problem persists since firefox 5 or 6, but it is only now at 8 that it shows me a tab for each extension. Before the alerts were hidden in the extensions manager.
So, After I installed the extension, there is no reason to ask me again and again to "install it" or "allow it".
The "add-on compatibility reporter" I installed only a couple of days ago, so I can have Google toolbar back.
How can I get rid of this absurd problem?

Do not double-click the file, but use "Open with" in the right-click context menu to open the file in a text editor like Notepad.
You can copy the file to another folder or let Windows create a copy with a number appended to the name in the same folder.

. FF Ver 4 is very slow and does perform as well as 3.6. I uninstalled 4 after downloading ver 3.6.16 and that is causing colorfultabs not to color and the Add-ons page is freezing making it unable to use it. Ver 4 runs very slow. Please help.

It seems my machine does not like your ver4 and 3.6.16. I want the ver prior to 3.6.16. . Since the last 2 updates have not been able to use FF to browse or play Webkinz. It is way too slow. Following the install of 3.6.16 the Colorfultabs is not working and I can't fix it or adjust it because the Add-ons list/page freezes. I have removed/disabled several add-ons and extensions and nothing seems to help. If it were not for IE I would not be able to use my machine. I have 2.5 GB of memory and 30 percent plus of free space on my hard drive. I use Windows XP SP3 if that makes a difference. I don't think I need a lot of add-ons but need to know what I can remove. The feature to open FF without any add-ons is gone for some reason. Please give me back my simple smooth operating FF. Thank you.

I had all the dot nets in add/remove but discovered they were not installed. Got all up to date. Puter is 2005, I have all that U listed except Win7. I just don't know if I need that or not. Did U say that I need more than the 2.5 GB
memory that I have? Please tell me why Win7 is better than WinXP.
FF is running much better now but Webkinz accounts are still loading slower than in IE. I am wondering if maybe I should totally remove all of FF including customizations and personal info and start over fresh with a clean install of ver 4. I am still using ver 3.6.16. Is it possible that this is reason for Webkinz (a flash, java and Unity game) not loading good? Also, are there some of the Plug-ins that I can remove? What Audio players do I need? I have wmp, real player, aol media playback, realarcade, realjukebox, also is Zylom usable? Thank you so much for your help.

Why do my appearance add-ons disappear and my custom home page revert to default whenever I close Firefox?

These items work fine and stay functional when I keep the browser open, but as soon as I close it, then open it later, the appearance add-ons disappear from my add-ons list and my home page reverts to the default.

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.

Having a problem with Add-ons I did not install and now can't uninstall.

Lately I have experienced problems with re-directing and other issues with Mozilla. I looked in my add-ons list and there are several things there that i did not add manually. (I have been having much trouble with ITunes and noticed a plug in in mozilla and want to know if it is necessary.) Is there a way to keep this from happening? I have been using mozilla for years and liked it when I could do a basic install without any add-ons that I did not request. Here is a list of the things that are troubling me - I am sure a few may be necessary. I would appreciate any help anyone can give me with this?

Really frustrated with this, I have already uninstalled Firefox and re-installed it - losing all my bookmarks and these add-ons were there after the re-install. PLEASE HELP!

I do not understand what you mean about your update problem

I'm running Firefox 3.6.13. Add-ons say will be installed when Firefox is restarted but they don't install. What is the problem?

I also have a few add-ons that aren't compatible with my current version of Firefox, and they say they will be un-installed when Firefox restarts, but they still stay on the add-ons list.

Delete the files extensions.* (extensions.rdf, extensions.cache, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite) and compatibility.ini in the Firefox [[Profiles|profile folder]] to reset the extensions registry. New files will be created when required.
See "Corrupt extension files": http://kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_install_themes_or_extensions
If you see disabled, not compatible, extensions in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" then click the "Find Updates" button (in Firefox 4: right-click the extension -> "Find Updates") to do a compatibility check.
