  I'm trying to set everything up, but Firefox will NOT let me add the Diigo Toolbar or Firebug. I keep getting this:
  
  Firefox could not install the file at
  
  https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/downloads/file/44490/firebug-1.3.0-fx.xpi
  
  because: Unexpected installation error
  Review the Error Console log for more details.
  -203
  
  I have no idea what's broken or how to fix it... =/ Anyone run into this or know how to fix it? I'm using Firefox 3.0.

  It looks like the problem is "corrupt extension files" somehow. Here's how to fix:
  
  http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/unable+to+install+add-ons
  
  Look down toward the bottom for corrupt extension files instructions.
  
  Fingers crossed!

  Awesome. Got it! Thanks for the quick response. Had to rename some of the Firefox extensions and restart a bajillion times, but I have both add-ons working now. Thanks again!
