Up-Dating to Firefox 6.
6 Answers
I keep getting a reminder to up date Firefox to Firefox 6, but was once told that if I did, I would lose certain add-ons.
Has Firefox corrected this yet, or should I remain with the original?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Which version of Firefox have you got at present? Firefox 5 was a major revision (which resulted in quite a few add-ons becoming incompatible) but Firefox 6 represents very little change. Almost all add-ons which work under Firefox 5 will continue to work under Firefox 6.
Because add-ons are developed by independent programmers, it's not up to Mozilla to make each add-on compatible with the latest version of the browser. It's up to the individual programmers (if they're still interested in being involved with the Firefox project) to update their add-ons.
