Why has Firefox 5.0 disabled *all* my add-ons? What did you do?
I had several add-ons, listed below. Firefox 5.0, installed on one of my computers, informed me that it had disabled every single one of them. As most of them were oriented toward privacy, I now feel that I'm left naked before the world, stripped of my privacy protections, and given no indication of how I can restore them. What the hell happened?

When Firefox disables an add-on, it usually is because it includes a list of compatible Firefox versions and it hasn't yet been updated for Firefox 5. If it worked on Firefox 4, there is a good chance it will work on Firefox 5, but no guarantee.
You can force Firefox to ignore add-on version restrictions by (what else) installing an add-on. Then you can test whether the add-ons important to you actually work in Firefox 5.

After you install this add-on and restart Firefox, there will still be a message that "--- is incompatible with Firefox 5.0" but the add-on will be enabled and a Disable button will appear for that entry.
