Maria: You've never said anything? At least under 'Maria'.
latest update of popup count 0.3.3 is not showing that a popup is blocked on the page.
Previous version works fine.
@Greg
Which page does this happen on or is it anywhere?
What version of Firefox are you using?
What theme are you using?
Which Popup Count settings are you using?
Doesn't work
Hi,
can you add an option so delete the pop up numbers?

I'm not planning to update this extension any time soon. If you need to reset the counter you can exit Firefox then locate your profile folder* and delete the file called popupcount.dat.
Hey Pike,
I see that in July you said you wouldn't be updating this extension anytime soon, but as there's a new version of firefox (2.0) out and it isn't working with it, I was hoping that you could update it so that it does.
Hopefully, it's something like updating the install.rdf file or something. Anyway if you do update it you can reach me at jbzbrain at gmail dot com.
Thanks for the great extension. I'll miss it if it's gone :(
@Shadowfox
It works for me, could you be more specific about what problems you're having? Thanks.
p.s. When I said I was not planning to update I really meant "I'm not going to work on new features", I do intend to at the very least keep it up to date with the latest Firefox versions.
Firefox 2.0 has it automatically disabled and says it isn't compatible with this version of Firefox. The version I'm using is 0.3.1.
I think that the only problem is the version of Firefox supported listed in the install file, but I'm not sure since I don't really know much about this making Extensions.
Just saw the 3.5 version up above and installed it. It's working great. Is this listed on mozilla.org? If so I couldn't find it.

Hi, why nobody responds me?
