Finding this has enabled the latest firefox to use this great bit of ebay software. There are instructions to muck about with various Biet-O-Zilla files to get it working on the extention download site. I tried without getting it to work. This far simpler and gets the job done.

I run 31 unique extensions. There were several steps, which I have outlined for you to follow: 1) Install from: https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/moreinfo.php?application=firefox&id=958 2) Restart Firefox (use File>Exit) 3) Open the 'Extensions' window (Tools>Extensions), and click the new "Make all compatible" button. [This step immediately made compatible 10 of my 15 non-functioning extensions]. 4) Uninstall all of the remaning non-compatible extensions. Make a list, because you will need to reinstall! [In my case, "unistalled" user preferences were later restored; specifically I had to uninstall DictionarySearch, but when it was eventually reinstalled my preferences restored themselves] 5) Reinstall each non-compatible extension. Check the new "Install Nightly Tester Tools to override compatibility" option on the 'Software Installation' window. [Most extensions can be found at https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/?application=firefox] Hope this helps.
