Both menu items 'Downthemall' and 'DtAOneClick' work fine, I still get a list of links and/or files on the current web page, but when I activate the download manager by clicking 'Start' or 'Add paused'. I get a totally grayed out download manager window with a blue 'info' icon and the text 'Loading...' in it. Nothing further happens. I haven't tried *all* other add-ons I have, but the ones I use most frequently, are still working fine. Short of hunting for and installing the previous version of Fx (that was working perfectly fine) any suggestions?

You could try out the latest beta version.

Even though I feel rather uneasy using betas, DTA 3.0 seems to be working for now.

Ah well, what's life without a little adventure...

Thank you for the suggestion!

Extensions generally do not need to be updated too often. However ones related to features like say Sessions, Tabs and Downloads may need to be updated for a new major Firefox Release sometimes.
