Nosript & Adblock-Plus don't install in user acct.

Nosript & Adblock-Plus don't install in user acct. They easily install when in Admin. and update easily also. I miss nocript greatly and don't have any idea how to fix this. I do almost all online work under 'user'. If you have any clues i'd like to hear them. One fact: This behavior did not start until after my nephew came over to "look something up" on our machine.

Would expect it to be a permissions issue.

As a test, create a new, clean Profile & see that NoScript does install into a "user" account.

new user acct worked perfectly as Noscript & ABP installed. I checked and noticed that the Admin. acct. updated Noscript... and said " There was a problem downloading. Try Again? This is what happenned to before with my other user acct. Checking extensions reveals that Noscript and ABP are absent on the list of extensions. (not just disabled but completely missing from the list) Almost as if they had never been installed though of course they had been.

So, now I have noscript only on the user acct that you suggested I open and nothing else. I know its a weird problem but I just dont like missing my NoScript. This is the best extension you can get for Firefox!!!

Does this ever happen to any other users?
