Sorry to bother you again, but Adblock Plus won't install. It stops and
just sits there when I press the "run" button. I can and did save it to
my files, but it doesn't seem to be an executable file. Am I doing
something wrong or should I use one of the other downloads on that page?
Having saved the XPI file for AdBlock Plus, do the following:
1. Launch SeaMonkey.
2. On the menu bar, select [Tools > Add-ons Manager].
3. On the Add-ons Manager window or tab (depending on how you have
configured SeaMonkey), select the green puzzle piece (Extensions) that
appears on the left.
4. On the upper-right there will be a button that has a machine gear or
daisy. Select it and then select "Install Add-on From File" from the
pull-down selection list.
5. In the "Select add-on to install" window, navigate to where you
saved the XPI file for AdBlock Plus. Select the XPI file and then the
Open button.
6. If you get a warning about installation not enabled, select the
option to enable installation and repeat steps #4 and #5.
7. On the Software Installation window, the Install Now button becomes
enabled after 4 seconds. Then select that button.
Hey, David, from the dim mists of my mind (Moz Suite days, maybe), I'm
thinking that you could install an xpi file by, in a Browser window, by
going File->Open File then double click on the xpi file and job done.
Doesn't this way work now-a-days (i.e. post Add-on Manager or post SM 2.1)??
