Hi I am using Vista and Firefox 3.6. I installed some popular addons like no script and web of trust for the admin account but when I sign on under the standard user account with less rights I do not have them available. The only way I can get them to run is to right click and run as administrator which defeats the purpose of logging on as a standard user. Thank you for any help that you can provide.

Extensions install to the Firefox Profile and each logon user account has its own Profile, so you need to install extensions for each logon user account.
