The recent Update from Mozilla for FF, made me to go crazy, Add-ons in my FF3.0.11 are not working in my new FF.Here is the work around, yeahhh ;)
When you are trying to install the extension, it may you give you the following error.
Install Failed
Download the XPI Files, For that You can follow this step.

Once you download the xpi file, rename the file extension with .zip.Open with Winzip/7Zip/Winrar.You will get the following structure.
struct
Open the install.rdf and change the em:maxVersion tag as follows
			<em:targetApplication>
				<Description>
					<em:id>{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}</em:id>
					<em:minVersion>3.0b1</em:minVersion>
					<em:maxVersion>3.5.*</em:maxVersion>
				</Description>
			</em:targetApplication>
		
When you are saving and closing your editor and go back to Winzip, You”ll be getting the following prompt. Click on “Yes”

Then rename your file to .xpi extension and just drag the file into FF. Then you”ll get the add-on installed.If you get any signing error, delete the meta-inf folder from the XPI file.
