What does this message in my OS X console log mean:

8/10/10 1:56:42 PM [0x0-0x17017].org.mozilla.firefox Sothink illegal clone restored in /Users/userid/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/00xxx0xx.default/extensions/{FCAB6FDD-5585-425b-95C1-5ED856F3FD08}/components/SWVDService.js

I don't have the Sothink video downloader installed, so is this related to some other extension and FlashGot?

Maybe a clone of sothink exists now
Have you got any other video/download extension installed, beside NoScript FlashGot?

"{FCAB6FDD-..." points to (Sothink) Web Video Downloader for Firefox so it would appear you do have it.

Also, Right-Click menu disappeared & in particular, http://forums.informaction.com/viewtopi ... 6378#p6378 (though I don't know if it is still an issue). Maybe Sothink considers FlashGot an "illegal clone" & so restores itself ?

I previously had the following installed, but have removed them due to paranoia:

1-Click YouTube Video Download
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/13990/

Video DownloadHelper
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3006/

DownThemAll!
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/201/

I'm not familiar with MAC, but if;

/Users/userid/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/

is where your Profile is stored & if 00xxx0xx.default is the Profile in use, then it sure appears that (Sothink) Web Video Downloader for Firefox is installed?

What does Addon Manager show?
