Issues Locking Preferences

Question

I am attempting to lock some user preferences in firefox 5.0.1 for windows XP. I have completed the following steps:
1. Created and converted "Mozilla.txt" to mozilla.cfg with proper ROT13 encoding as per http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences.
2. Created local_setting.js with proper code as per http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
3. Moved both files in required directories as required per thead above.
4. Restart Firefox.
Upon restart, no setting where locked.
below is a copy of my mozilla.cfg file before converting it.
<pre><nowiki>//
lockPref("security.enable_ssl3", false);
lockPref("security.default_personal_cert", "Ask Every Time");
lockPref("network.protocol-handler.external.shell", false);
lockPref(“plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types”, "PDF, FDF, XFDF, LSL, LSO, LSS, IQY, RQY, XLK, XLS, XLT, POT PPS, PPT, DOS, DOT, WKS, BAT, PS, EPS, WCH, WCM, WB1, WB3, RTF");
lockPref("browser.formfill.enable", false);
lockPref("signon.prefillForms", false);
lockPref("signon.rememberSignons", false);
lockPref("privacy.sanitize.sanitizeOnShutdown", false);
lockPref("privacy.sanitize.promptOnSanitize", true);
lockPref("dom.disable_window_open_feature.status"; true);
lockPref("dom.disable_window_move_resize", true);
lockPref("security.enable_ssl2", false);
lockPref("security.enable_tls", true);
lockPref("dom.disable_window_flip", true);
lockPref("dom.event.contextmenu.enabled", false);
lockPref("dom.disable_window_status_change", true);
lockPref("dom.disable_window_open_feature.status", true);
lockPref("security.warn_leaving_secure", true);</nowiki></pre>
Did I do something wrong? I thought I might have missed a step so I verified I did not and I am now sure I have completed all steps as required. Anyone know the trick here? I expected the setting to be greyed out. Am I expected the wrong result here?

Answer 1

I have done the following and still no luck:
1. Changed "lockPref" to "lockpref"
2. Change "false" to "False" and "true" to "True"
No Luck!
Other things I have noticed:
1. If i rename the original mozilla.txt to mozilla.cfg and edit the local_setting.js to not include the ("general.config.obscure_value", 0); the appication opens fines but no setting are locked.
2. To use the "coverted file" I need to have the "("general.config.obscure_value", 0);" within the "local_setting.js". Maybe I am reading the directions wrong but I feel like they are telling me to do the exact opposite.
Are text files created through notepad in windows created with ROT13 format?
I think there is an issue with my .cfg file. I copied and pasted it in my original post and I am now attaching it in a screen shot.
I have seem other ways to do this on the web but I do not want to edit the omni.jar file. I need a solution that will be easy to maintain.
