      Hello,

      Thanks for reading Rock Your Firefox and using add-ons! All the add-ons we review on Rock Your Firefox work in the current version of Firefox — 3.6. Because Firefox 4 is still in beta, not all users, particularly the non-tech crowd, have adopted it. And many add-ons won’t update until after the beta stage.

      Would you mind sharing the “corrupted file” message you got? What did it say, exactly? The add-on is working fine in non-beta versions of Firefox, and I’m fairly certain no part of it is corrupted…it may simply not be working for the beta version you’re using.

      Thanks!
      Elise
