NoScript quit working...

[yoog]

The other day I down loaded a torrent movie. While I played that file, it mentioned to download tool bar for NicePlayer from start.tootid.info to play the whole movie. I installed the toolbar but it did not play the movie and hence, I removed it using addon manager "remove". Since then, "NoScript" as well as "AdBlock plus" do not work at all.
I un installed firefox and reinstalled but no go. What am I doing wrong?

I am using Ubuntu 11.04 and FireFox 16.0.2.

Of course.

Create a new Profile & migrate your settings over.


What I see, "niceplayer" (NicePlayer_cidNP_1036), is the Conduit Toolbar.
What I was served was a Windows EXE, so that isn't even going to run on your OS.
Perhaps it sniffs your OS & sends you something different?

Don't know if this applies or not, Conduit search has hijacked my firefox browser how do I remove it?


I see, it also downloads an XPI, so that could affect you.

I uninstalled FireFox through Synaptic, deleted /home/.mozilla directory and reinstalled FIreFox through Synaptic as suggested by the other forum user. I will try to look into your suggestion for NicePlayer. Thanks for your help.
