hi, I didn't see this before today but I think FF has moved quickly. When I was on the net yesterday I got a little pop-up message from FF which said a couple of add-on's were not compatible (or something like that!) and I should restart to disable them. I checked just now and one was as mentioned in the article above (WP). Which just goes to show I should check on here every day instead of every few days.
