When I tried that yesterday, it allowed extensions to be reinstalled (yes, I was one of those who tried to fix this problem by uninstalling and reinstalling my extensions), but not all plugins actually worked in this state. Most notably, NoScript displayed no icon on the toolbar (just a blank space with a tooltip) and did not appear to actually do anything. Its settings were also inaccessible, both through the (missing) popup menu and via the list of installed add-ons (in which case I got a blank grey page with an endless "loading" spinner animation). Based on this, it appears that xpinstall.signatures.required may be no more than a partial solution. (Although it's also possible that something may have been broken in the uninstall/reinstall process.) -- Dave Sherohman
