Has anyone been able to determine the cause of this issue with Norton ID Safe not being able to verify Firefox's Extensions? Strangely, works fine on other systems, same OS, same version FF, same extensions, same settings.

Win 7 Home Premium Firefox 29 NIS 21.2.0.38

Also, just for kicks, installed the ID Safe stand-alone on an XP machine to see what would happen, same version FF, same extensions, set up the same way and get the message in Vault settings for Mozilla Extensions "Mozilla Extensions: Extension Disabled" when all extensions are enabled.

Any suggestions on either one?

TIA

With some of us, Norton just will not link to Firefox.
