Theme and Addon Keep Disabling with 9.0.1
After updating to 9.0.1 my theme/persona (MS Office by devatrox) and one of my addons (Google Redesigned) are being randomly troublesome - but the issue seems to be Firefox as it is happening with more than one.
When I start Firefox they have about a 50/50 chance of both being enabled or disabled.
Once the Add-ons Manager said Google Redesigned had an update and told me to restart. I did and it stayed active when I restarted, but then disabled the next time and will not let me enable it again. The support for the addon says it's Firefox's problem: http://www.globexdesigns.com/admin#!bugtracker/bug/230-firefox-9-disables-google-redesigned-0-9
My theme is doing similarly. Most every time I start Firefox it is disabled, yet I can re-enable it in the Add-ons Manager and it works fine.
Having to manually re-enable the theme is getting really tiresome, and using Google Reader/Gmail is pretty impossible without the redesign addon. Please help.

The fix is out. You can install Google Redesigned 1.0 from here.

Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
See:
Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows Firewall. I will read through those when I get the chance.
I have the same problem. The theme is disabled because of the google redesigned extension. This problem doesn't occur if the extension is disabled/removed. Google redesigned doesn't have an update for FF 9 although the add-ons manager says an update is available. It's still version 0.9. So I'm guessing it has something to do with google redesigned.
The same thing happened in FF8

I don't think this is going to solve the problem because I've had Google Redesigned disabled for a long time and my persona is still gone every time I restart Firefox. Now I have completely removed Google Redesigned to see if that will help.
