Article: Firefox Disabling Microsoft Add-ons Happened to me yesterday in FF 3.5.3 - Pretty weird. I just clicked on the button to disable the Add-ons. FF seemed to work normally.
Just giving members a heads-up.

Funny you mention that the same thing happened to me yesterday too. I just closed the window without agreeing to it and it hasn't appeared again, yet.

weird. when i started ff, it showed me two addons that it said would cause incompatibility. and recommended deletion. (both M.S.) i let it do its thing, and all is well. (i never installed these addons. didn't know i had them)
Looks like microsoft slipped in a bug which allows hackers to fuck up firefox

I had the same warning. Microsoft . net framwork assistant 1.1 and windows presentation foundation ( plus BUNCH OF ####s) a plugin, it disabled itself.
If I understand correctly it was a false warning. If so I guess I should get these back or try too! right?
