Each time I start firefox I have to disable/enable the addblock plus add on. In the extensions it indicates that it is enabled, but it is inoperative until I disable and then enable it again.

Tried the above link and actions to no avail. The add on works on XP but not on Vista. It shows that it is enabled but does not block anything until I disable and then re-enable the add on.

Still no help on making Add Block Plus start automatically when firefox is opened. In the add ons section it shows that it is enabled, but it is not working. By disabling and enabling the add on becomes operational.

Have you updated to Firefox 22 and ABP 2.2.4?

If so, you can try the Adblock Plus forum.
