The errors are: script busy: Programfiles/Mozillafirefox/components/nsExtensionmanager.js:623 or [JavaScript Error: "dir is null" {file: "file:///C:/Users/Owner/AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/v8lye5o2.default/extensions/%7B0538E3E3-7E9B-4d49-8831-A227C80A7AD3%7D/components/nsForecastfox.js" line: 323}]' when calling method: [ffIDiskService::get].

The only solution is uninstall firefox and reinstall. I have to do this every day as it only works until firefox hangs or closes.I'm running Vista. Never had this problem until I updated to 3.6.8 and then I kept getting java errors, so I downloaded the newest java. Now if firefox starts at all, the add ons don't work. If I uninstall and reinstall, they work temporarily until I have to close firefox.

The "nsExtensionManager.js:623" issue is caused by an incompatibility of Personas Plus 1.6 with the Google Toolbar.

Thanks! I followed the instructions to uninstall and reinstall Personas, (had to use safe mode since I couldn't access the AddOn menu) and it's working now. Thanks so much!

Finally after a month and a half My googl search box is back and I can access the Addons link. A safe mode uninstall of Personas 1.6 fixed every issue....Many Many Thanks
