Great extension, but prevents use of about:config
starting with Firefox 3.1preb1 and also fails in Firefox 3.1preb2 (minefield) with the following error:

XML Parsing Error: undefined entity
Location: about:config
Line Number 45, Column 3:
–^

Side Notes:
The extension is not listed on your extensions page.

An about:config page of mine of general interest is

I love your scripts ;)

But this might have the google lawyers un-easy :P Using Google as a verb :)

But damn, I admit I use “Google” as a verb daily too…

It’s so much easier to say “go google toys” rather than “go google search for toys”
