I did run across a way to have FF 2.0 ignore compatibility for add-ons, but I lost the link.
Ha! Found it. 3 Ways to Make Old Extensions Compatible with Firefox 2.0.
And method #2 worked for both my favorite theme, and LJHook.
I couldn't believe it the first twenty times you told us, but it's starting to sink in now.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Heh, I just figured out one reason why my theme was listed as incompatible. It doesn't display the Extensions and Themes menus properly. Not a surprise since that was one of the bigger changes in the interface, but hey, ironic.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Anyone ever used these?
Mac OS X only: Each time the Mozilla guys roll out another major release of Firefox , blogger and developer Neil Lee releases his optimized versions for Macs.
That means if you're a Firefox lover and you're rocking a G4, G5, or Intel Mac, you might want to download your specific version and give it a try. I know a lot of Macsters who swear by the optimized builds, which supposedly offer performance enhancements specific to your Mac.

SO, question--I want a new computer, but since for now I've got the work laptop, I'm not in a huge huge rush. Is there any reason I should wait, before buying a new MacBook? Anyone have any ideas how likely an update/new prices is, in the next couple months?

So I followed all the damn instructions to configure OE for POP access to Gmail, and pop.gmail.com isn't responding. Is that their problem or mine? Either way, this sucks.
A time-out occurred while communicating with the server. Account: 'Gmail of Polter-Cow', Server: 'pop.gmail.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Error Number: 0x800CCC19

Hey. New board.
I'm getting pings from pop.gmail.com, implying that the server is up.
You enabled it at both ends, right? In OE and in the gmail client? There's a setting of some sort you have to set in the web client.

Yeah, I enabled POP in gmail for all mail ever. Gah.
Can't send, either.

All is well that ends in pizza.
First mistake is using OE....
Hmm, try turning off SSL for now.

Yeah, I tried that. It didn't work.
I set up POP with my Comcast e-mail, though, and that seemed to work fine. If I can't get stupid Gmail to work, I guess I can use that for a while. As long as I set up mail forwarding, everything should get bounced around to me eventually.

You could try Thunderbird. It works for me to access my gmail pop mail.
Waitaminute, your message above says it rejected account "Gmail of Polter-cow".
Do you have that whole phrase in the account name being sent to the server?
