I am attempting to lock some user preferences in firefox 5.0.1 for windows XP. I have completed the following steps:

1. Created and converted "Mozilla.txt" to mozilla.cfg with proper ROT13 encoding as per http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences.

2. Created local_setting.js with proper code as per http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences

3. Moved both files in required directories as required per thead above.

4. Restart Firefox.

Upon restart, no setting where locked.

below is a copy of my mozilla.cfg file before converting it.

//
lockPref("security.enable_ssl3", false);
lockPref("security.default_personal_cert", "Ask Every Time");
lockPref("network.protocol-handler.external.shell", false);
lockPref(“plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types”, "PDF, FDF, XFDF, LSL, LSO, LSS, IQY, RQY, XLK, XLS, XLT, POT PPS, PPT, DOS, DOT, WKS, BAT, PS, EPS, WCH, WCM, WB1, WB3, RTF");
lockPref("browser.formfill.enable", false);
lockPref("signon.prefillForms", false);
lockPref("signon.rememberSignons", false);  
lockPref("privacy.sanitize.sanitizeOnShutdown", false);
lockPref("privacy.sanitize.promptOnSanitize", true);
lockPref("dom.disable_window_open_feature.status"; true);
lockPref("dom.disable_window_move_resize", true);
lockPref("security.enable_ssl2", false);
lockPref("security.enable_tls", true);
lockPref("dom.disable_window_flip", true);
lockPref("dom.event.contextmenu.enabled", false);
lockPref("dom.disable_window_status_change", true);
lockPref("dom.disable_window_open_feature.status", true);
lockPref("security.warn_leaving_secure", true);

___________________________________________

Did I do something wrong? I thought I might have missed a step so I verified I did not and I am now sure I have completed all steps as required. Anyone know the trick here? I expected the setting to be greyed out. Am I expected the wrong result here?

To which folder did you copy the local_settings.js file?

That file should be in the C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref\ folder where you can find the channel-prefs.js file.

If the mozilla.cfg file is obscured then you only need this line:

pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");

local setting.js is located in the C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref\ directory.

If i remove the pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); from local_setting.js it says it cannot read the file correctly.

I have done the following and still no luck: 1. Changed "lockPref" to "lockpref" 2. Change "false" to "False" and "true" to "True" No Luck!

Other things I have noticed: 1. If i rename the original mozilla.txt to mozilla.cfg and edit the local_setting.js to not include the ("general.config.obscure_value", 0); the appication opens fines but no setting are locked.

2. To use the "coverted file" I need to have the "("general.config.obscure_value", 0);" within the "local_setting.js". Maybe I am reading the directions wrong but I feel like they are telling me to do the exact opposite.

Are text files created through notepad in windows created with ROT13 format?

I think there is an issue with my .cfg file. I copied and pasted it in my original post and I am now attaching it in a screen shot.


I have seem other ways to do this on the web but I do not want to edit the omni.jar file. I need a solution that will be easy to maintain.

Notepad only creates plain text text files.
You need to run a ROT-13 script or program to code the file.

If you do not use obfuscation then mozilla.cfg and mozilla.txt should be the same.
Check the file type to be sure that then name doesn't have a hidden .txt file extension (mozilla.cfg.txt)

The file mozilla.cfg file needs to be in the main Firefox program folder where the Firefox.exe program resides.
