Hi, Kirsten, Yes, the current nightly build is very unstable at this point. I might suggest you try it in a few days and see if it's stabilized at all. I jumped the gun a little and hadn't used it in awhile, and it is quite unstable now.
It should work to download it from the site. However, be sure the computer recognizes it as a firefox extension. With FF installed, it should recognize it properly. I admit that my current copy is crashing consistently within a couple minutes at this point, but I'm going to keep trying it from time to time.
