Several months ago, I upgraded my Mozilla browser. The DownloadHelper add-on did NOT work with this upgrade. So I had to return to my previous, older, Mozilla version -- which I still have. I keep getting emails saying I should upgrade my Mozilla. I don't want to lose the use of my add-ons if I do this. Any help, here, please?

You probably want to do the security update to 3.6.18, but if this add-on is critical to you and there are no good substitutes, then you should hold off on Firefox 5.

Thank you, JSCHER, for your helpful reply. I'll take your advice. And thank you, Mozilla, for providing this forum for questions and answers such as these.

i have Mozilla 5.0 and DownloadHelper 4.9.3. Both versions are latest on my platform (windows XP) And both are working fine. I think you should update. If you will have any problems we are here to help.
