Why won't the previews for presonas work in enabling the browser to let me see personas on my browser before wearing them and allowing them??

I got into Personas!! after taking the time to learn about Firefox. Once there i was able to view my browser like it would be if i chose a persona just by dragging the cursor over it. Then i installed a few more really cool add-ons, followed a step by step instruction on how to increase the speed of my browser using the about:config thing, also modifying in there I THINK the browsers settings for the view of multiple tabs, that way they get smaller and smaller. only a few aesthetic and personall base changes to about:config, nothing too big. but yea, when i drag my cusor over the picture of the persona, it doesn't let me pre-view it on my browser before i have to wear it, then allow it.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== all of a sudden i noticed it

Previewing a persona only works on sites that are whitelisted via an allow exception. Tools > Options > Security : "Warn me when sites try to install add-ons": Exceptions Make sure that you do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the 'Site Preferences'.
