It is a plugin i wrote by myself. I wrote an install script for Mozilla 1.7 and it installs correctly in the plugins folder of Mozilla 1.7. I am also able to install it with the Mozilla XPI installer in Firefox - but I want to add additionally some XUL-GUI in the Firefox style. I tried to make a Firefox XPI package with install.rdf, ... and the plugin installs into the extensions folder of the users profile. The plugin also shows up in the extensions list ... but Firefox does not bind the plugin dll on startup (assumption: all plugins have to be in the plugins directory?). Do you have any suggestions? Here is the URL of the plugin: http://graphics.ethz.ch/3dwebcontent/surfelviewer/download/installation.html Thanks, Sascha Thanks for the reply. It is a plugin i wrote by myself.

I have a Mozilla XPI and I want to transform it to use it with Firefox. The plugin installs into the user folder (Documents and Settings, ...) - the Plugins Folder of Firefox remains empty. When i load a page which needs the plugin , the plugin dll is not found. do you have any ideas? thanks Hi,

I see no reason why the component loader should try to load .so files under Windows. How about filing a bug in bugzilla.mozilla.org regarding this problem.
