Hello Les,
I did register first. I finally got the Webvisum extension up and running by
turning off the warning about ad-ons in the Security tab of the Options
dialogue. Of course, I turned this back on once Webvisum was installed. Alas,
after successful installation, I had a similar issue with the license
agreement. After some messing around, I was able to access the radio buttons to
accept the license by pressing alt-a.
I have come to the conclusion that there may be some sort of accessibility
issue with Firefox 3 with respect to the dialogue boxes it pops up. I have
tried thus far with NVDA and Window-Eyes, achieving the same results. Is anyone
else out here experiencing trouble anytime Firefox 3 pops up a dialogue box?

Hello Everyone,
Now that I have Firefox 3.0 running, I find I am unable to download and
install extensions, such as Webvisum. The following steps are reproduceable
every time:
1. Run Firefox.
2. Visit http://webvisum.com and follow the last "here" link to start the
download.
3. The dialogue to allow the extension never appears. Nothing appears to
happen.
4. The same behavior is observed with Scripting Status turned off.
5. Copying firefox.* to xul.* in the Window-Eyes user profile does not
help, either.
Has anyone else tried downloading and installing extensions in Firefox 3.0
with this beta running?
