Caryn, You said a few days ago that you don't have the 'extensions.ini' (etc.) files in your Firefox profile. I've no idea what's on your computer, of course, but my understanding is that all Firefox profiles have these files, and I'd be surprised if you were an exception. (My Vista computer certainly has them, but I know nothing of Vista 64). Google on 'where is firefox profile in vista' if you are in doubt.
Even when (if) you delete or rename them, they get regenerated when you restart Firefox. Have you disabled the 'Windows Presentation Foundation' plug-in ? (Firefox > Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) My 'extensios.ini' file contained reference to an extension called '....NET assistant'. I carefully deleted this line (and renumbered any below) Those two things together resolved several extension issues for me, including Firebug not showing up, and no pop-ups. However, the situation remains fragile: installing the Codeburner extension this morning put me right back, and the '.NET assistant' had re-appeared (perhaps Codeburner requires it). I'm running FF 3.5.3 in WinXP Home SP3, so your experience could be different from mine. Hope that's some help, at least.
