Chosen solution

Check to see if installations are allowed in Firefox

  • Go to about:config like you were going to a website
  • Press the button saying you'll be careful
  • Search for xpinstall.enabled
  • The value of xpinstall.enabled should bet set to TRUE. If it's FALSE, right click it and select Reset.

What exact error is it giving you?
