I knew I wasn't losing my mind. When I first installed it many moons ago, Garmin did NOT have the .xpi installer, just the straight downloader and that worked just FINE. Adobe made the same stupid decision some years back and I couldn't get ANY of their plugins to work properly till someone showed me where I could download them directly. Thankfully, Adobe did away with that procedure. One can only hope that Garmin does too (or at least learns how to build the xpi PROPERLY). -- Jaime A.
