Thankyou.. Just a question - will this work on Firefox versions ?

It should work with Firefox version 2 and up. If you can install the latest greasemonkey in your Firefox, then this script should work.

Only one way to find out - install it and try it out.

My guess is that since it targets Greasemonkey and not Firefox itself, it shouldn't matter which version of Firefox you're using (as long as a recent version of Greasemonkey is available for your version of Firefox).

Look here for some help.

Especially this comment near the bottom:

I may have fixed this. I did two things, I created an empty text file named "config.xml" and placed it in every directory under: C:\Users\VISTA_USER_NAME\AppData?\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles \ljnuw7ej.default\extensions\{e4a8a97b-f2ed-450b-b12d-ee082ba24781} That may be different on your system, so open the profiles folder and do a search for "grease", use that path.

I also had two folders that I had not seen before that started with "gm_" located at: C:\Users\VISTA_USER_NAME\AppData?\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles \ljnuw7ej.default\ I moved them to a temporary location rather than delete them just in case. Once I did those two things, Greasemonkey is working again!

Replace VISTA_USER_NAME with the name you log into Windows with in the paths above.

Not sure if your case is the same, but worth trying.
