Is there anyway to silently install addons? I am trying to roll out a firefox addon in a corporate environment and prefer no user prompts for addon installs.
When I move the .xpi package for an addons to the Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\USER\extensions directory firefox prompts to allow install for the suer. Is there anyways to disable this prompt and do an automatic install? I'm in a corporate environment and trying to roll out an addon silently.

I think there is a file that stores the list of active extensions. If you were to remove that file, Firefox might rebuild it silently, not knowing which extensions are new. One or more of these files would be relevant: extensions.sqlite (Fx4+), extensions.sqlite-journal (Fx4+), extensions.rdf (pre-Fx4) and extensions.ini (pre-Fx4).
Is it impolite to do this to the user? Well, yes...
It is no longer possible to automatically install extensions in a Firefox profile without confirmation.
If you delete extensions.sqlite then you will get an 'allow' tab for each extension, so it is best to avoid that.
