There should be a break - a choice - after I've been asked whether or not I want to update Firefox and then Updater tells me that certain add-ons will not work THEN I should be given a choice whether or not I want to continue.

I had to remove Firefox 5; re-install Firefox 4 because of a key addon that I use as much as I use your Browser, now, certain websites buttons do not work:

There are other sites with the same problem. If I were to guess what it was - it would be like a person going to the clinic and spouting out some name that they had heard on tv or read in an article. Java? CSS? HTML5? Who gives a **** - I have a life other than this machine and a girlfriend.

What exactly doesn't work? Please describe the steps to re-create the problem.

This is one of those articles where you have to click through several pages; the radio button provided does not work. My cursor tuns into a finger and the button lights up and it can be seen to activate(?) when clicked but it does nothing. This seems to be a problem on some other sites but not all sites. Do I need more examples?

I see a photo slide show on that page. There are arrows next to the image number (e.g., 3 of 10) that worked almost every time; once or twice I had to click a second time. There are radio buttons to rate the photo on a scale of 1-10 and then a Vote button. I didn't see a problem there.

If you are using any "blocking" add-ons (blocking ads, flash, etc.), you might try testing with those add-ons disabled temporarily to see whether that makes any difference.

The arrows don't work at all. I'll disable each add on (one at a time) and see if that helps but I quit using No Script some time ago.

If you have ZoneAlarm installed check the addons you should find a Zonealarm Security Engine Addon, disable it.

I have just got this from ZA forum "Firefox 5 just became officially available today. ZoneAlarm does not support Firefox 5 at this time. We are working on an upgrade so that will be supported.

ZoneAlarm will support IE8, IE9, FF3 and FF4 with current 10.x versions of ZoneAlarm."
