What do you think will happen? What's likely to happen is...your system becomes unstable and crash with a B.S.O.D. My FF 3.6.3 started crashing recently for no reason and when I looked at it's installed plug-ins I found out that Microsoft Net Framework Assistant 1.0 plug-in was grayed out. When restarting FF from previous before crash, I ran about 15 attempts at re-loading the plug-in's website and it caused FF to crash while loading. After removal, FF is running smoother without crashing. I wouldn't suggest that any half ass installs as being safe. Call me paranoid if you like but, if it's not installed correctly folks, then get it off of your system. Best to be safe than sorry. A great big THANK YOU!!! goes out to Wyatt from me.
