Final Solution to FireFox 3.6 and "Check Your Plugins" Problem

Hi,

Ever since I installed AR6 (Adobe Reader V6), when I launch FF3.6, most of the time it
automatically goes to Mozilla's "Check Your Plugins" page. This never
happened before.

Note: I have all automatic updates unchecked in FF, and FF launches to
"Show a Blank Page" ("General" options) .

Note: Above is part of an old post I made in this NG.

The "final solution" to the problem has to do with setting the attribute
for "PREFS.JS" to Read Only (prevents it being changed).

The location of this file is:

C:\Windows\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.Default

Note: "xxxxxxxx" represents a unique folder name each computer will
receive by FireFox when installed.

After I entered "xxxxxxxx.Default" folder using Dos Prompt, I typed the
command (without quotes) "ATTRIB +R PREFS.JS" to set a Read Only
attribute for "PREFS.JS" so no changes in that file can occur. I did this
about 3 or 4 months ago and I have never had that problem again.
