Hi

I have downloaded the latest version of Firefox 3.6.13 from the mozilla website, (I definatly dont have firefox 4 beta). When I try to add any new search add-ons such as Bing, Youtube, IMDB I awlays get the same message "This search engine isnt supported by firefox and cant be installed".

I have uninstalled and re-installed firefox same problem persists, I even re-installed my OS as I needed to do it anyway and same problem.

I have found a fix for myself, but i still would like to know what caused the problem.

If i get the error message, all i have to do is go to the address bar and type in random letters, then when i click install, they install and no more error message.

anyone able to explain please?

There's something messed up with the AMO Search Engine pages, I get the same thing happening. I will see if there is a Bug files about that issue. I can't get "search" to work when searching for Search Engines, either.
