The author decided to put his own auto-update in which hangs whenever his web server is not available to serve the current version number. It wouldn't be so bad except he does not honor Firefox's own setting to not check auto-update stuff. It has it's own. If you have it that'd be the first one I'd try disabling. -- Steve C.

Firefox Broken After Extensions Update
[ Debian/sarge; mozilla-firefox/1.0.4-2sarge5 ] I just clicked on the green "auto upgrade" in 'firefox' to update some extensions. I then quit the program, and reran it. It now does little if anything ... in particular, no window appears. Of course, it would help to remember exactly which three extensions were updated ... I think one was for weather, one might have been 'Stumble!', and I can't remember the third! Is it just me? Anyone know how to turn off all or some extensions *external* to 'firefox'?
