Yes, it is: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1136/ (*cough* the link is right on the piercieve page *cough*) > If so, did it need > write permission to the system directories? It didn't with iceweasel; I have no idea about iceape. When I was still using the mozilla suite I was always successful with granting temporary write access if an extension could not be installed right away as a normal user. You should have a file called "install.log" in your ~/.mozilla/... directory; the installer should record all unsuccessful file access attempts in this log. Granting temporary write access to the problematic files/directories and repeating the installation as a normal user always worked for me. (Note, however, that this was at least 2-3 years ago; I have no experience with any recent version of iceape.) -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
