**Disabling extensions is now possible in Firefox 2.0.0.1. However, enabling and disabling an extension requires the restarting of Firefox. The dynamic installing/uninstalling of add-ons could allow an external program to force feed a bug into Firefox, but I don't see how that's possible with dynamic disable/enabling of extentions. --[[User:Armaetin|Armaetin]] 15:16, 31 December 2006 (PST) | **Disabling extensions is now possible in Firefox 2.0.0.1.

*When disabling or uninstalling an add-on, put a "Restart Firefox" button just like when you add an add-on. I don't like to have the "save tabs on shutdown" option enabled, so a restart button saves me from remembering all of my tabs. There is one for after installing add-ons, so I don't see why there isn't one for disabling or uninstalling add-ons. | *When disabling or uninstalling an add-on, put a "Restart Firefox" button just like when you add an add-on.

*Add an option to protect the enabling/disabling of a plugin with a password. This is essential to use firefox in a work/buisiness environment and it's also quite a nice feature for some specific plugins. For example; it is now easy to disable the adult filter plugins. For these kinds of add-ons, password protection is essential. | |||
