Firefox won't download addons due to error code 228
I am a new user to xubuntu 10.04, and I just installed it on a computer duel-booting with Vista. Whenever I try to download an add-on, the opens the download add-ons screen, but nothing else. Then, it quits out saying that Firefox could not install the file at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/downloads/latest/9825/addon-9825-latest.xpi?src=search because: Download error -228
This happened
Every time Firefox opened

Turn off IPv6:
Enter in the URL address box:
about:config
Click "I'll be careful"
Type ipv6 in the filter box to get to the one and only line that's needed; it'll say network.dns.disableipv6
the default value is "false"; double-click to set the value to "true" (to disable IPv6)
